But ID isn't a theory. Its bullshit.

It suggests no such thing, it is not a theory, and it is not science. Just a bunch of airbags running around pointing at things saying "this was designed!". Is repeatedly making easily debunked claims helpful for any discussion, ever?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Believe he already linked the definition. Explain your willful ignorance of the subject?

Read it, I don't see the why it doesn't qualify. Enlighten me.

Not sure if anyone can offer you any enlightenment, but something very sinister is happening in your mind without you even being aware of it if you couldn't figure that out from such a simple and short set of possible definitions. Notice that there were multiples angles available and ID still couldn't meet the bar.
Un-evidenced hypothesis is about as far as it gets. (hint: check the "commonly confused with" bit. It get's even worse if we become more specific, and make claims to a "scientific theory", or "scientific hypothesis")

Pretty much what rhythm said.
ID as far a it could be called science in the loosest term possible is a "Hypothesis - a mere assumption or guess." And I regard it in the same way that my friend told me earlier that aliens created humans. Which is far more likely than magic in fairness to him.
The question now becomes one of who sold you a bill of goods Black? Why would they be so willfully misleading and dishonest, or perhaps they themselves didn't understand the definition? It would be a stretch to assume that someone who makes it their business to argue biology wouldn't know precisely why their pet argument wasn't a theory. ID isn't a pillar of your faith, I assume, you could dustbin ID and still remain devout, yes?
