No scientific evidence proves that God exists. No scientific evidence proves that God doesn't exist. People place their faith in one conclusion or the other, but proof positive does not exist.
"Intelligent Design" (ID) only claims that "certain features of the universe and of living things are best explained by an intelligent cause." ID does not claim that those features identify God as the Creator. ID is not religion dressed up in scientific language, as is sometimes said by those who argue against it.
But "Creationism" is the claim that it is God who created the universe and living things. Creationists make a "religious" claim that ID does not. Creationists love to see ID's evidence for design in nature because it is so consistent with their faith.
It will help if we all try to keep this straight.
