Eric,
Please pay attention. I shall reiterate for your benefit...
ID can not be tested scientifically. It is faith, not science. The issue
that is always ignored is that ID is a dead issue scientifically, as it has
already asked its questions and been shown to be empty of scientific
meaning. There is nothing there to test, even if it were testable.
That would be why on earth not.
The fact that there are patterns in nature and that some people are
confused into interpreting that as design is not supportive of the theory,
which is why it was mentioned. In addition, the fascinating line of inquiry
is why people are so easily confused by ID, not ID itself. I apologize if I
did not make that clear.

Why on earth not? You say it yourself:

So why not pursue it?
