What Are The Arguments For Intelligent Design?

From personal experience, it seems that many of the arguments for intelligent design (ID) largely amount to people claiming evolution is false due to XYZ.

This can be frustrating for those seeking answers.

Generally, the focus is on particular [perceived] problems with proof of evolution. For instance, some argue that evolution lacks special proof for claims that do not meet [individual] standards.

Intriguing discussion(s) but they [usually] miss the point. Providing evidence for ID.

Evolution has been cross-examined and so the time has come for ID [and its theorists] to present opening arguments for its case.

Question(s)

—Are there in-depth bodies of [peer-reviewed] knowledge supporting ID?

—What are the valid arguments supporting intelligent design?

—What scientifically-falsifiable predictions does ID make? On what grounds is it based?

—What evidence does ID give to support predictions?

—What objective arguments can be given for ID?

—How can arguments for ID be verified?

None starters include:

— Red Herring ("evolution has yet to prove XYZ, therefore C")

— Unsupported assertions (what you happen to believe but does not support ID)

These are not arguments, they are fallacies and non-argumentative discourse. Please try to avoid them.

Using anecdotal evidence from personal experience or sacred texts will undoubtedly be used by some, but it is preferred that arguers use [scientifically] falsifiable evidence to support arguments.
