INTELLIGENT DESIGN EVIDENCE
About Intelligent Design
The central claim of Intelligent Design theory is that design in nature is
scientifically detectable. The detectability of design in man-made objects is
straightforward, intuitive, and non-controversial. With respect to the origin and
development of cosmological and biological systems, Intelligent Design theory
holds that the same principles of design detection provide a logical inference of
design in nature. That is, the material evidence provides a reasonable basis from
which to infer design, and such an inference supports a legitimate scientific
hypothesis of intelligent design. As such, Intelligent Design theory is a scientific
disagreement with the core claim of naturalistic evolutionary theories, particularly
Darwinism,[1] that the design exhibited in our universe is merely apparent design,
i.e., unintelligent design caused by unguided, purposeless, natural forces of
physics and chemistry alone.

[1]  Darwinian Evolution: A materialistic theory of the history of the diversification of organisms
from common ancestors through a process of descent with modification. The theory postulates
that evolutionary change is the result of material causes [i.e., unintelligent causes due to
forces and energy in nature], driven primarily by random variation and natural selection.
See,
"Thirty-eight Nobel Laureates, Nobel Laureates Initiative, (The Elie Wiesel Foundation for
Humanity, September 9, 2005), stressing to Kansas State Board of Education: “[E]volution is
understood to be the result of an unguided, unplanned process of random variation and natural
selection.”

[2] As used on this website, "naturalism" and "naturalistic" refer to the philosophical doctrine
that nature, i.e., matter alone, is the whole of reality, and that intelligent causation for nature
itself does not qualify as a scientific explanation. Naturalism, as such, is a philosophical
position akin to materialism, which, when dictating the methods of science is referred to as
methodological naturalism.
About Intelligent Design
Intelligent Design is simply a scientific disagreement with the core claim of
Darwinism, that the design in nature is the result of unguided, purposeless,
unintelligent processes.
