According to supporters of intelligent design, “intelligent design” implies not using any religious premises.
I don’t think this is quite right. I think they claim that intelligent design doesn’t imply using any religious premises.
~□(x)(Ix⊃Ux) rather than □(x)(Ix⊃~Ux)
In other words, there is nothing inconsistent with a theist (using religious premises) and a directed panspermia proponent (not using any religious permises) both being supporters of intelligent design.
Okay, change it to “their version of intelligent design doesn’t use any religious premises” and change my original statement to “I can’t construct a coherent argument for their version of intelligent design”.
