you are trying to understand, read

Are you saying that no ID believing scientist believes there may
be a unified theory?

Are you saying all ID is saying is there was an initial design of a
set of physical laws and all as proceded from that _fundamental_ set of
laws or are you claiming (AIUI) that there were certain forms of present
species in particular which were enabled preferentially over others by
some unknown and unknowable process?


It isn't a religion or set of dogma. All ID is saying is that the designs
had or have a designer.


If the former, that's nothing that some prominent scientists and other
philosophers have proposed for centuries. If the latter, then imo you
have negated the possibility of there even being such a thing as this
unknowable process prevents it.

As noted elsewhere, it's an interesting philosophical discussion but
needs to come to an end here so I cease (yet again )....


I think you made it too complicated.
