== Criticism ==
Not one paper concerning Intelligent Design has been accepted by peer review
by the scientific community at large, except by other "Creation Scientists".
Thus it's difficult to support any claim that Intelligent Design is a true theory,
rather than a religious statement, since it fails to pass muster with the overall scientific community.
