"Doesn't that reduce ID to a search for the designer? "
Was ID anything else?
And in their search, they have never been able to propose a testable, falsifiable hypothesis for a designer and thus ID is not science...it is religion with technical jargon.
cheers,
M

OK..I'll bite....propose a hypothesis of intelligent design
1. show how it can be falsified
2. provide supporting evidence
3. propose experiments that could be performed to test the hypothesis
Failing this it is not science.
Also you made a broad reference to "recent studies in the philosophy of science.." could you make this vague reference more specific i.e. which studies, by whom, were these studies peer reviewed or just posted as an opinion somewhere?
Edited to add: From your edit it appears that you do not know what the differences are between the theory of evolution and abiogenesis..do you know?
