Ok... so as Teleologist, you are representing yourself as someone who believes in ID, a theory which implies that a scientific proof of a non-random origin for life on earth can be found. Yet at the same time you have stated that your actual beliefs about the origin of life on earth are unprovable and faith-based. Hmmm... now what's wrong with this picture? More Troll Gobbledygook, I'm afraid. By the way, your sentence construction is really whacked tonight. Hitting the juice again? Also, can you tell us how many times you've been banned from ET?
its your right to disagree of course... however there is no such thing as an ID theory as far as science is concerned, therefore "non ID" doesn't really speak to me, sorry... as far as evolution theory however, if thats what you were trying to say, to couch this in "theist neutral" terms if u will, similar to most scientific theories, it purports to provide a framework to understand & describe / modelize what actually happens, and make predictions as to what else may happen shld the theory prove robust enough - not necessarily answer teleological type questions... fair? now refocussing on the search for more ultimate explanations / frameworks as to the true nature & laws of mutation dynamics etc if any, are you familiar with temporal hierarchies concepts & maths?

Likewise, failure to explain the origin of the designers of life on earth doesn't preclude them from being natural. Either one of us can invoke abiogenesis to explain how first life in the universe orginated but that's just speculation.

ID is an investigation into the logical possibility that evolution is the product/output of design. Or put another way, that life is designed to exploit and channel evolutionary processes.
Design is a verb not a noun, design will need a designer. According to your version of ID then, who/what is the designer? ID is not scientific theory, therefore cannot explain evolution past guess or conjecture.
A program is not a verb, it is a noun. A program will need a programmer. Darwinists claim that nature is programmed for so called random spontaneous mutations and natural selection, who/what is the programmer of this natural program?
