1. (intelligent design) (1791↑, 462↓)
1. A n00bish, pseudo-science religious theory that advocates that some phenomenon are just too complicated to be explained by science alone, and therefore God, or an intelligent designer must exist. 2. Excrement.

Dude, I made such an intelligent design in the pot this morning\!

2. (intelligent design) (928↑, 205↓)
An attempt by the apologists for creationism to artificially inject their metaphysical theory with scientific credibility. Intelligent design makes the "deduction" that the development of complex life on this planet was an intelligent creator, largly on the basis of argument by personal incredulity, a flawed understanding of Darwinian natural selection and fundamental misunderstandings of basic principles of thermodynamics and biology. Advocates claim natural selection/evolution (which they frequently confuse) are impossible, and often have links to other biblical-literlists that believe the earth is only 30000 years old, and other such fantasies. There is reason that the evidence would lead any impartial person to come to such conclusions; it is therefore an example of wishful thinking and by the principle of Occam's razon is a metaphysical (faith) based belief, not a scientific one. The continued deliberate obtuseness on this issue has led to fundamentalists attempting to force science teachers to present it in the classroom, and the general devaluing of science in the population of the US and other countries as a whole.

Although there is not a scrap of evidence for intelligent design, it is impossible to disprove (because god can do anything\!), and hence it is a metaphysical theory. Because natural selection is demonstrably observably occuring right now, it is a scientific theory.

3. (intelligent design) (651↑, 130↓)
An apparently unprovable hypothesis that living creatures were created by an all-powerful, intelligent entity that itself did not have a creator. Contrast with [evolution]. ID proponents typically fail to understand 4 things: 1) Scientists use the word "theory" differently than the layperson 2) Science operates just fine in the absence of absolute truths. Thus, if evolutionary theory doesn't explain everything, that's not a problem - it's a "work in progress" 3) People are no better off substituting a slightly imperfect scientific theory for a completely unsupported religious hypothesis 4) The fact that ID cannot be disproven is a weakness, not a strength (e.g. There are 482,331 raisins orbiting Saturn right now... I defy you to prove me wrong).

If Intelligent Design is such a great alternative explanation to evolutionary theory, why aren't proponents actually USING it to advance scientific understanding? In short, they should practice what they preach... literally.

4. (Intelligent Design) (444↑, 131↓)
A whole-baked idea that the right wing is using to devalue the teachings of the theory of evolution in public schools. What this concept is devoid of is that it cannot be proved nor disproved, unlike evolution which is a theory but has evidence. Stuff that cannot be proven and has no evidence should not be taught in public schools.

Intelligent Design is a right wing conspiracy that the moral majority is using to recruit more closed and easily persuaded minds.

5. (intelligent design) (367↑, 104↓)
1. The theory that an omniscient being plays a vital role in the workings of the universe and is the explanation of all things (including but not limited to the origins of life itself) that have not yet been fully proven. 2. A subtle way for [creationist]s, particularly Christian extremists, to inject their religious ideas in to the public school systems and scientific community. Although the theory of intelligent design is defended with rhetoric about how [evolution] is also only a theory (thusly giving right for other theories to be taught as well), one key thing is different- the implied meaning of the word [theory]. Evolution is not a theory. It is a scientific theory. Scientific theories are not plain "I think this is why this works" theories, they are "I think this is why this works, and here's the lowdown on how it works" theories. Scientific theories are attempts to explain through experimentation and observation the workings of the universe, whereas intelligent design is a theory with no supplied (let alone proven) [hypothesis]. This is also known as [speculation]. Furthermore, if at any time in the future there is a supposed hypothesis for intelligent design, it would be immediately discredited due to it's superstitious roots. If all speculation were to be credited as scientifically valid, well, just take a look at the [flying spaghetti monster] theory. Intelligent design has been rejected by the scientific community since the 1800's, and regardless of what our political leaders or the mass media or religious leaders (assuming they're all separate people) say, intelligent design was and always will be speculation. It is because of the loose interpretation of the word [theory] that intelligent design has been seen by creationists as a loophole in vocabulary, thusly (in their mind) justifying suggesting it as scientifically valid. Which it's not. Get over it.

"[String Theory]" is speculation because its hypothesis has not yet been proven through demonstration. "[Set Theory]" has been proven through endless mathematical examples and is practiced by pretty much everything and everyone on a daily basis. "Theory of Evolution" has been proven through observation that if an animal does not produce offspring, its species' overall gene pool has been slightly altered. Logical deduction concludes, that over a long period of time, this 'weeding-out' of the gene pool can ultimately alter the species itself. (Also known as "Natural Selection"). "Theory of Intelligent Design" is speculation because it never did and never will offer a hypothesis. It is a clever word to mask the statement "God made you and that's that. To argue or explain God is to be against God and therefore against one's own nature. This has been a public service announcement brought to you by the government of the United States of America."

[Creationism] under a psuedo-scientific name. Ultimately, it is a myth developed by those who have no understanding or respect of science. People who discredit evolution are misguided at best.

Bay-oosh wants to teach intelligent design because he wants America to become a third-world theocracy/

9. (intelligent design) (131↑, 55↓)
Intelligent design is a fundamentally flawed theory. It does not belong in a scientific debate because it cannot produce valid observational evidence. It also does not belong in a philosophical debate because its only premise is that there are some slight flaws in [evolution] (and what scientific theory doesn't have flaws). From this premise it is impossible to show the existence of an intelligent designer.

[Kansas] has just become another state to teach intelligent design. When will they learn that [America] needs proper scientists to make the microwaves, [bird flu] [vaccines], [tactical nuclear weapons], and other modern [home comforts] they enjoy.

10. (intelligent design) (150↑, 75↓)
Advocated by the Christian right, a "scientific" theory proposing that the gaps in the darwinian theory of evolution can only be explained by the existance of a supreme being, and thus should be taught in public schools. complete bullshit.

"The school board voted on intelligent design."

Aside from being a laughably bad example of the word "intelligent", Intelligent Design is pretty much a joke that accidently gained belief and popularity, much like the War of the Worlds radio program from 1938. The basic concept is that God must have created everything because sunflowers are pretty. The only "scientists" who support this theory have phony degrees and doctorates that they bought for cash from unaccredited Bible colleges , rather than taking any actual courses to earn. While it is completely disregarded by real scientists, it is creeping into classrooms. This is due to the fact that the amount of people with no understaning of scientific theory far outweigh those that do, even though it would only take an hour of reading to familiarize one's self with the basics. All in all, Intelligent Design is the final nail in the coffin of our already dying public education system. It is sure to make future generations regard everyone in our time as slack-jawed morons.

Cletus: "Gawly, I gots 5 F's on my report card again? What ever will I do?" Christian Literalist Retard: "Not to worry Cletus\! Me and my cronies just got Intelligent Design added to every one of your classes\! Now you can just write 'Because God did it' on all your test answers, and pass with flying colors\!" Cletus: "Hooray\! I'm gonna be President\!"

A (not so) clever attempt by American (yes, intelligent design is a product of, and is limited almost exclusively to the United States) Christian fundamentalists at re-packaging creation "science", and trying to sneak it into public schools by making it appear (at least to their desperate selves) as strict science. They call it the "Theory" of Intelligent Design, and call themselves Intelligent Design "Theorists" (or IDers). This so-called "theory" is hard to define, since intelligent design "theorists" are very careful to keep their definitions as vague as possible, as to avoid getting thrown out of classrooms over and over again (like they have been). Here is a little run-down of some of intelligent designs' incoherent claims: - They offer nothing more than the mere hypothesis that the universe was created by "a creator" (who him/her/itself had no creator). Who is this creator? "Duhhhh..... we don't know." - When did this "creator" create the universe? "Duhhh...We don't know." or "We don't do there". Could be 10,000 years old or billions. They don't say. This is where the young-earth creationists get into fights with the old-earth ones. - HOW did this creator create the universe? "Duhhhh.... we don't know." Brilliant. - Love to claim that Evolution is "JUST A THEORY" (more on that later) - Launch a variety of attacks on evolution, and believe that by pointing out "errors" in the evolutionary theory, it must mean GOD DID IT by DEFAULT. - Misinterpret and misunderstand science and try to use that as proof of God's existence. Make sense? (Yeah. Doesn't to me either). - Claim that the Grand Canyon was carved out in a few days by "The Great Flood", and that all of the Earth's geographic features were carved out by said flood. (For more on this nonsense, look-up "Flood Geology") - Claim the fossil record is either: animals who died in the "great flood", a hoax by scientists to trick the public at large, or a hoax by the devil to trick people into believing in evolution. - Man and dinosaurs walked the earth together (the Flintstones was accurate after-all\!). And much, much, MUCH more incoherent BABBLE. Here are a few things intelligent design "theorists" are forgetting: - The universe began expanding about 14 billion years ago, and has been expanding ever since. Everything can be traced back to a common point. The Big Bang Theory was first proposed in 1927 by a Belgian Priest after observing the red shift in distant nebulas by astronomers to a model of the universe based on relativity. Years later, Edwin Hubble found experimental evidence to help justify this theory. - The Earth is about 4.5 billion years old (AMPLE time for evolution, contrary to what IDers are claiming). - The grand canyon is made up largely of shale and granite, which could not under any circumstances have been cut in a "few days" by a "great flood". - There is an innumerable amount of transitional species in the fossil record to support evolution, along with genetic evidence. - The word "theory", like many other words in the English language (and any other language) has MORE THAN ONE MEANING (SURPRISE). In a scientific context, it means a group of propositions for explanation for a class of phenomena. "Gravitational Theory", "Einstein's Theory of Relativity", "Germ Theory". The word theory doesn't mean "guess". The "Theory of Evolution" explains HOW evolution happens, not WHETHER it does. Of course, to anybody willing to see the scientific evidence that completely discredits ID and Creation "science" as pure pseudo-scientific religious garbage, it is obvious. So if the scientific evidence is so clear, why don't IDers see it? Because they DON'T WANT TO. Fortunately, almost everyone world-wide can see the facts, including most middle-eastern countries. However, there is a small minority of Christian fundamentalists in America who want to wipe out science and implement Biblical Law. They don't care about science. Science is just the "wedge issue". They want to destroy it. Their true agenda can be seen by reading "The Wedge Strategy" (google it). This short document, which was leaked onto the internet, clearly details their true agenda, and it ISN'T scientific knowledge. And to all you creationists and IDers out there, YOU WILL NEVER WIN.

"We have concluded that (intelligent design) is not [science], and moreover that (intelligent design) cannot uncouple itself from its creationist, and thus religious, antecedents." - Judge John Jones, Harrisburg, PA, December 20, 2005. The judge also stated: "It is ironic that several of these individuals, who so staunchly and proudly touted their religious convictions in public, would time and again lie to cover their tracks and disguise the real purpose behind the ID Policy."

Psuedo-Scientific name for the term, "creationism", describing an unfound speculation that God created life on Earth as it exists today. Proponents believe life is too complex to have evolved, even given hundreds of millions of years. The only people who support Intelligent Design are the deeply religious and crackpot "scientists" with fake, store-bought doctorates from unaccredited Christian colleges. Despite being rejected in the science community for over 200 years, many christians insist on having creationism taught in our public schools. Intelligent Design is not science, nor should it be respected as such. Its a children's fable, not unlike saying babies come from the stork.

[Kent Hovind], the most well-known "righteous" Christian proponent of Intelligent Design is currently serving 10 years in prison for tax evasion.

Philip: The science shit is too hard, we should make it easier. Mike: Do you believe in magic? Philip: Sure. Mike: Cool...that was easy...but we should call it Intelligent Design. Philip: Let's male-space-dock. Mike: Ok, I love your balls.

16. (intelligent design) (64↑, 24↓)
An excuse creationists use to try to justify creation in the light of modern scientific discoveries. It makes as much logical sense as saying my big toe knows the meaning of life. I can't prove it because my toe can't talk but you can't disprove it for the same reason.

If God did the whole "intelligent design" thing then why are Christians so stupid.

18. (Intelligent Design) (47↑, 17↓)
Creationism masquerading as science. Asserts that the universe is too complex to have come about on its own and must have been designed by some intelligent being (we are, of course, to assume this being is God). This is the argument from incredulity, which can be restated as, "I don't understand how this happened, so God must've done it." It may satisfy some, until we actually do understand how something happens and no longer need God as an explanation. The Intelligent Design movement is actually an agenda of the Discovery Institute, a Young Earth Creationist organization devoted to evangelizing by spreading misinformation about such things as the theory of evolution. In their leaked "wedge document," they detail a plan to insert Intelligent Design as an alternative to the theory of evolution in public school science curriculums. This, they believe, will stem the dissemination of accurate scientific information in favor of ideas that don't contradict their beliefs. By removing the religious trappings of creationism (they are careful not to mention the Christian God, Jesus, or the Bible), they hold Intelligent Design up as genuine science. Apparently they've never bothered to check the definition of "science," since it mentions things like falsifiable hypotheses, evidence, stuff like that. Intelligent Design is pseudoscience and a real danger to education in the U.S.

ID proponents want Intelligent Design taught in science classes instead of evolution, not alongside it. They may claim only a desire for fairness, but that's only the beginning. If we let ID into our classrooms, they won't stop there.

19. (intelligent design) (48↑, 23↓)
An idea by people living in total [ignorance]. Instead of doing proper research and looking for imperical evidence, ID supporters look through the pages of the [Bible] for already answered questions. This might indicate the well observed "since I can't understand it it can't be true"-syndrome. The other alternative might be the simple desire for convinience. ID-supporters don't want to write 6 page essays about how the cell works, just to be graded 3/5, but rather "God did it and that's fine by me" and getting 5/5.

Intelligent Design puts the ID in IDiot. IDiots often say "Evolution is just a theory." In the scientific field a hypothesis (which is the word they're looking for) becomes a scientific theory when the hypothesis is so well established that no new evidence is likely to alter it, after which the explanation or hypothesis becomes a scientific theory.

A theory that evolution is wrong, and the world was created and maintained by Mr.Chuck Norris. This is almost certainly true, the only flaw may be the fact that [Chuck Norris] has not roundhouse kicked the idiot christians who say intelligent design is about god's heads up there asses.....yet.

Irreducible complexity, defined by imbeciles that spend meaningless lives selling half-truths and whole lies to anyone that still wants God in classrooms. The closest thing to a legitimate argument for intelligent design is pointing out flaws in the current theory of evolution. I.D. by definition is not and can never be science, because it is based upon an element beyond human understanding creating life. The scientific method can't be applied, because it's not a "scientific theory" that can be tested or something for which evidence can be collected, only a "theory" that people believe based upon their own understanding of the issue.

Intelligent design is almost like science, without the science part. But it sure got popular fast

An alternative scientific theory for the origins of life. Contrary to what 99% of people will tell you, Intelligent Design is not grounded in religion, nor does it assume the existence of an intelligent being as creator. Instead, the theory suggests that intelligence is a force that exists in the universe(similar to gravity or magnetism), and that it affected the development of life on Earth. Unfortunately, the opponents of Intelligent Design have succeeded in convincing the public that the theory is simply Christian Creationism in disguise, and its proponents are promoting the theory out of religious fervor. This lie has become so engrained in the minds of people that it seems that nothing could expose the truth.

I'm not here to offer evidence for Intelligent Design. I'm just here to debunk a all-too-common myth about the theory.

Intelligent design is "The assertion or belief that physical and biological systems observed in the universe result from purposeful design by an intelligent being rather than from chance or undirected natural processes." A common misconception is that intelligent design is just "microwaved Creationism". Creationism (and religion, for that matter) is a form of intelligent design. Intelligent design is not a form of creationism. Intelligent design could even mean that an alien created the world. There is nothing contradictory for an atheist to believe in some types of intelligent design. If you believe in evolution it is also not contradictory at all to believe in intelligent design. Another common misconception is that everyone who believes in intelligent design is a FAT RETARDED JEWBAG. There are many many incredibly intelligent scientists that support this theory. This is irrelevant, but it's worth mentioning. If the big bang theory is plausible, then Intelligent Design should be too. Now before you shit your pants, Intelligent Design does in fact have no evidence. But it does have some pretty obvious implications like, yep, how incredibly complex humans, and everything in existence is. Ask a molecular biologist how complicated a "simple" cell is, if you'd like to know. The big bang theory also has implications, but it has an amazing amount of counter evidence. Since you probably have already stopped reading this and given it a thumbs down, I won't list it here but just google "the conservation of angular momentum" if you actually care.

guy 1: intelligent design is bullshit, it's just for retarded creationists who think the world was created by God. guy 2: actually intelligent design states that the universe is too complex to have evolved on its own and that the world was created by someone or something, not necessarily Jesus Christ, or any god for that matter. guy 1: you know, that's actually reasonable...

26. (intelligent design) (45↑, 97↓)
An alternative theory to evolution for the theory of life. Intelligent Design says that intelligence is a force that exists in the universe, like gravity, and we can see its effects in the development of life on Earth. Contrary to what many would tell you, Intelligent Design isn't simply Creationism in disguise. It doesn't name a specific entity as the "intelligent Designer". However, the claim that ID-as Intelligent Design is often known-is the brainchild of religion has become common wisdom, and the theory has been excluded from classrooms in the name of "seperation of church and state".

Evidence for Intelligent Design: The fossil record: The progression of species in the fossil record shows the appearance of a planned process Irreducible complexity: Many organism parts, such as the cell and DNA, are extremely complex. The absence of just one part would render the whole structure useless. Such complex structures simply could not have been the result of natural forces.

Unfortunately, the opponents of Intelligent Design have succeeded in convincing the government and public that the theory is religion in disguise and teaching it in public schools violates the seperation of church of state. This myth has been so ruthlessly propogated that any evidence disproving it is flagrantly ignored.

It doesn't matter whether Intelligent Design is correct or not. What does matter is that it is a true scientific theory and deserves to be taught as such, if only to break the monopoly evolution has on scientific theories for the origin of life.

Intelligent design, as i define it, is the study of any organism or biological sequence, that is staistically incapable of ceating itself, or being the result of natural selection acting on variation(which some things are). If no logical pathway of evolution can be concieved and the statistical odds are largely against the organism in question forming itself, we can argue with reason that an outside influence was involved in creating this organism. that outside influence can be defined as the intelligent designer. the identity of the designer is irrelevant, the fact that the organism exists with help from an outside force holds that it was created. the higher intelligence could be some form of extra terrestrial, or could be a divine being namely God.

the mathematical odds of something not happening are 1 in 10 to the power of 50.the mathematical odds of DNA being the result of sponatneous generation( forming itself) are 1 in 10 to the power of 67(A.J. White, "Uniformitarianism, Probability and Evolution), thus we can conclude that DNA did not create itself, and the only other logical outcome is that it was created or the result of intelligent design

Intelligent Design is the idea that some all-powerful being created the original elements of the universe or is guiding the events of the universe. This is different from [creationism], which is basicly the idea that god made the entire world, as it is today, in a matter of days. Intelligent design is in contrast with [evolution] and [natural selection], which has the development of life occuring by chance. Intelligent Design is primarily used to explain how creatures as different and complex as humans have come to be. I myself don't believe one way or the other, and don't really think it matters. If one day we learn for a fact that the world was created by a giant blue pastry, how is that going to change our lives? It won't.

Scientist: All life has evolved through Darwin's theory of Natural Selection. The most fit will survive. Intelligent Design Believe: No way, humans are like 100 times more intelligent than the second smartest animal, and they've radically changed the entire planet in a couple thousand years. That's not natural, something most be helping them. Creationist: God made the entire world in 7 days and if you don't believe it youre going to hell\!\!11\!

An idea concerning the earth's origins that states that the known universe is too complex to have evolved randomly, which is what the theory of evolution teaches. Its' critics (95% of whom call themselves atheists) slam it as being "Not science" or "A loony back door way for the Christians to try and ram religion down kids' throats". The irony is that these same people, when arguing for their belief, will mostly defend it with the theory of evolution.

I.D critics think that everyone who follows intelligent design is a Christian moron with no grasp on the real world, yet there are numerous scientists with no particular religious belief who see value in I.D. If its' such a load of crap I don't know why the atheist brigade are getting so paranoid about it? They should be encouraging schools to teach it along with evolution, kids are smart these days. Then at least when they're adults and they want to rubbish I.D they'll actually have some knowledge of it, instead of being like all the narrow-minded people don't want to see it explored as a theory at all because it challenges their faith that everything in this world is a random occurence.

Intelligent design is not religion in the sense that it has less nonsense (none of the fairy tales). Some bible-bashers are ruining this giant stride for religion by redefining the concept to fit in with Jesus. The idea of intelligent design, is that all science is real, but it since there is no widely-accepted scientific explanation to explain why everything exists the way it does, in so much complexity, there must be a designer. Of all the theories about god, this one makes the most sense. Believers are trying to get it taught in schools because it falls in with the current science, but allows for students to chose what they want as to it's origins. But the concept of god being inherently flawed by the fact that it's utter nonsense that something so unfeasible could exist, when there are rational explanations that are easy to understand. You would be better off not concerning yourself with the origin of everything than believe in a designer as such because it simply says that everything exists because god made it that way, which doesn't answer a damned thing. For a theory, you need a question. The question was, why does everything happen the way it does? The answer was: God designed it. But- Why does everything happen the way it does? Why did god design it. There is only one answer that can actually fit perfectly into this question, and since god is not the answer, that answer is wrong. Besides the fact that there would still be no explanation to tell us how god exists. Why would god bother creating the universe in such a way, if he is so powerful? He could have just had the sun, the earth, and the people. If you define something as all powerful, (and that seems to be the only way a god could exist, as a semi-powerful god would make even less sense) you must know what that entitles.

Dude\! I just heard about this thing called Intelligent design, it makes total fucking sense\! Except for the whole god part, right? Uh, fuck man, you're right\! God makes no sense\! Go read a brief history of time and fill in the blanks with stuff that makes sense, you don't have to just jump on the god bandwagon for things you don't understand. Religious perspective, or the perspective that eventually lead to the idea of a higher being, is something women used to need to deal with the concept of growing a human inside of themselves, but man, being easily convinced and corrupted, turned it into something for their control, and you see that all over the globe. Being intelligent, though, we should be able to see past the bullshit now, and deal with difficult concepts ourselves, without instinctive perceptions getting in the way.

The Intelligent Design Theory suggests that intelligent causes are necessary to explain the complex, information-rich structures of biology, and that these causes are empirically detectable. Contrary to popular belief, this theory is based on modern science, not religious beliefs.

The latest theory to explain the complexity of the biological world is intellegent design.
