they do not address what ID proponents actually say, but rather his slanted viewpoint of what they say.

Nor does he state what evolutionists believe. Hows is Macro-evolution science? It is historical science at best, explaining the past based on what one sees, and HOW one interprets it. When I see fossils, I think "Must have been a very quick event to cover and preserve that many animals that quickly". Fossils are evidence of quick burial, hence my interpretation as evidence of a global flood.

I agree with this statement. My largest problem with evolution (and in the interest of full disclosure, I am an active Catholic but do not embrace YEC) is that it really isn't provable. I hear evolutionists say this all the time, that the difference between ID or YEC and evolution is that evolution is provable.

How so? Like you said, all that an evolutionist can do is take a look at the fossil records and hazard very broad guesses at what happened over the course of millions of years.

Evolutionists cannot recreate or prove that some sort of one-celled microorganism emerged from the primordial sludge and somehow evolved into steadily more complex creatures of all types.
