DEAR MR. PRESIDENT: SHUT YOUR YAP!
I wonder how many of the ID people have considered the fact that if one accepts the possibility of intelligent design, then it is far more logical to believe that life on Earth was created by some sort of space aliens. The UFOlogists (I am not one, BTW) do a far better job of explaining the religious texts of the Christians, Jews, Hindus, etc. than the followers of the faiths themselves.

Oh, come on! The Steady State theory was an elegant theory, well-considered and fit the facts that were available at the time. It was supported by respectable scientists - in fact, Fred Hoyle, one of the proponents, calculated nuclear reactions in stars because he needed some way to explain the heavier elements, which indirectly and rather ironically, lent support to the big bang theory. The phrase "big bang" was itself coined by Hoyle as a term of derision. However, be that as it may, it's more logical to believe, -today-, in the steady state theory, than it is to believe in intelligent design. ID never had anyone but kooks supporting it, unless you go back centuries.
