ID does not say anything about the perfection of the original creation. ID does not even say there is a God. ID simply says that there is evidence in natural phenomena that, when tested SCIENTIFICALLY, gives indication that that phenemena is not the result of time and chance but is rather, based on our experience regarding design and intelligence, the product of intelligent design.
That's it. That's all. The argument stops there.
Ok, then replace the word God in my post with Intelligent Being.
When tested SCIENTIFICALLY an ID person will have the OPINION that this could only have been the result of creation by an Intelligent Being. There is no evidence that this IB actually created anything. It is still all about opinions.
The simple answer to your question is, "No, we don't"
Until about 1900, most American school children learned the basics of the English language from the "New England Primer" written in 1805.

Americans thusly learned the basics of the English language by also learning the truth of God's word - The Bible.
Since 1900, school systems and the courts have prevented school children from learning the Bible. Today's American school children can learn everything but the Bible in their studies. That's what the fuss is all about!
Then the thing to do is to try to add a new course to the schoolprogram that teaches about the different views on life in the world. Cristianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Judism, Atheism, the whole lot, including ID and evolution. It shouldn't be that much of a problem to get this new course I hope?
Just don't try to get school to teach ID instead of science or instead of evolution. Because it just isn't science.
