Where is the Intelligence in Intelligent Design

It's mystifying what runs through the minds of creationists and proponents of quackery known as "creation science" - If all life comes from the Divine Hand of Gawd, then how can we explain such disparate things that run the gamut, from invasive weeds and nuisance species, to disease - Avian Influenza, HIV/AIDS, or even simpler things which replicate, even though they are just wrinkled little protein constructs - prions, which brought us BSE (Mad Cow) and all of its relatives...

For the poor creationists, either it was A.) God's Will or B.) somewhere in a lab some "intelligent" evil scheming scientist has been devising these things...

Or, perhaps science is correct, and the world and its species are in a continual species of flux...
