Intelligent Design isn't a complete hypothesis, and I don't see it ever being that way. Maybe they also figure that they wouldn't get far by trying to push it into schools.
The Institute for Intelligent Design, or whatever it's calling itself these days, needs to keep saying "real soon now!" or the funds dry up. When you're marking time while waiting for a miracle from God it helps to keep the suckers contributors hoping.
