ID doesn't even present a sufficient basis upon which to test, rendering it eternally a hypothesis and never a valid scientific theory.

The inverse is true. You see something for which there is no evidence, he sees only that for which there is evidence. He requires no faith. You do.

Some of the evidence is eyewitness testimony in the Gospels. Scientific evidence is in the Anthropic Principles.

Evidence? That's not evidence. Now you're being silly.

Better silly than closed-minded.

The Theory of Evolution is just that: a "Theory"

How is science being closed minded? ID proponents have no research to present...no research to test. They just want to be awarded the title of "theory" without having to do the work.

Science doesn't work that way. And don't claim oppression. Every other discipline in Science proposes peer-reviewed, testable hypothesis for the scientific community. Those that stand up to review and are repeatable in testing are accepted concepts.....AGAIN, this is how science works.

ID (cdesign proponentsists) don't want to do the work...the work that takes years, decades to do...they want their religious based concept allowed in the public school system taught along side a theory that has been factually supported, tested and proved.

Ask yourself why they don't want to spend the time to do the work.
