Ah, I see. Thanks!
I thought maybe ID meant that someone accepts evolution completely, but still believes that God was behind it all and set everything into motion to begin with.
No that would be theistic evolution
the idea that go was so smart that he was able to set the development of life before hand without needing to fiddle with it constantly (dip the divine finger in) this contrasts with ID which claims god is a musician who wants to meddle with his own creation constantly (because god apparently can't create perfect creatures right off)
I take this to simplify
ID god dips his finger in constantly because he's never happy
TE god so great and powerful he doesn't need to interfere in the development of life till humans show up
