I think Ray has answered the question. As he demonstrates, creationism can be supported by windy meaningless pseudophilosophical babbling, childish logical fallacies, making up lies about your opponents' position, gabbling nonsense, hiding from the evidence, ignoring science, and declaring creationism to be right over and over again as though saying it would eventually make it true.
Of course, when I say supported, y'know, I don't mean justified. But this really is the best they can do.

Does this apply to evolution as well?
Of course.
The fact that creationism is wrong doesn't in itself imply that evolution is correct.
The evidence does.

Re: Heading towards the topic.
Straightforward logic says there is no difference.
This is, of course, rubbish. "Straightforward logic" says that there is in fact a difference between two different things.
Evolutionists do not agree that design indicates invisible Designer.
Because of course it does not. For example, the fact that a bicycle is designed does not imply that it has an invisible designer. The designer of a bicycle is, invariably, visible. Also, he exists.
You already agreed that the appearance of design exists.
Yes, we agree that you've been fooled.
Do go on.
