I am not sure exactly when the notional line in the sand was crossed and animals began to acquire rudimentary consciousness or intelligence, but I suspect it occurred substantially before the evolution of apes. So in this sense, intelligent design, albeit initially of very subdued order of efficacy, had been with us for a long time.
Also, sexual preferences by intelligent (nominally) mates have had a very strong influence on the evolution of humans. So I guess we are all to a very substantial degree intelligently designed.
I for one think the flesh, if not necessarily the brains, of the likes of Megan Fox is so intelligently designed that no god could have had a role in her creation, only successive generation of men.
