I am a bit baffled, what is an intelligent design theorist? I can understand<br>
those who accept and use the Anthropic Principle and theorize with it--the<br>
Anthropic Principle is an explanation without leading to any predictions.<br>
However, what kind of theory can you do if you believe in an intelligent<br>
designer? I believe one can claim that our universe was brought into<br>
existence by an Intelligent Designer, but that is as much of a "prediction"<br>
that you can make with such a "theory." Perhaps someone can enlighten me.<br>
