Um, no. Intelligent Design is nothing more than creationism disguised with sciency-sounding language to try to make it sound legitimate. But it's still just creationism with a different bent, and it works basically like this:
The entire universe was created by the Judeo-Christian God as spelled out in Genesis in the bible.
Things in the universe kind of look like they were designed, so they were definitely made by the Judeo-Christian God.
Evolution is false because of ______, so that means that biblical creationism must be true.
Oh and to answer your original question, we wouldn't be talking about your god or religion so much if it weren't for the religious coming here to try to show us how wrong we are, or the religious trying to force religion into schools or government.
But you wouldn't begrudge us a place to come and bitch about religion, would you? I visit several different forums but this is the only one I discuss religion on. And religion isn't the only thing we talk about here.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
