I.D. does give positive reasons, why choice; and therefore an intelligent designer better explains the evidence. It is not just, we don't know, therefore it must be designed! It is relying on what we do know to make an inference.
Strange, because it seems to be an issue of denying everything we know, for no apparent reason, at least in his version of ID, lol. Maybe you could present a better argument than Trips? One that relies on what we know, one that makes an inference?
