How can we use and apply ID? What scientific principles could we take away from it?

Well one of the predictions of ID is that all organs and DNA in the original design would likely have a function. There are exceptions such as when micro-evolution which mostly results in degradation, genetic illnesses might cause those examples.

Had that been a competing theory, doctors might have been more reluctant to remove organs they thought were vestigal. Doctors removed the tailbone, Coccyx, from many people thinking it didn't have function. And it left them in excrutiating pain the rest of their lives, because it did indeed have function.

Likewise, the Evolutionist prediction that non-protein coding DNA was vestigal likely set back genetic research by years. Had all genetic scientists approached the science with the same attitude the founder of genetics had,which was to find how more about the designer's design, and assumed that it had function, we might be more advanced now than we are.

Here's a table of ID predictions. But why are you wasting my time? You know this exists, you just don't want to admit it because it conflicts with your world view.

I'm not going to convince you, and you're not going to convince me. So let's just agree that you believe in evolution and I don't. And that you're to arrogant to believe that there is any other possibility.

True.

I speak in concepts of the physical world. You speak in the concepts of the metaphysical world. By definition they do not intersect.

But the next time you need a new light bulb, call a priest, minister, rabbi or monk. They should be able to talk one into existence though pure sophistry.
