Ok, some have tried to prove God's existence others have tried to prove the opposite. IDers argue that life needs a designer. They usually deny they are sneaking God into science, but you can make your own mind up. The ID type arguments also struggle to gain acceptance as science within the larger scientific community. Questions of predictions and falsifiability arise. There are also points about ID being a lazy answer, and closing down enquiry. But these ID guys and girls don't like to give up easy.
So is it possible to prove that science does not need Intelligent Design argument to explain nature?
[NB I am not asking whether it is possible to prove nature does not need a designer/God. I am really thinking about our methods of enquiry and explanation.]
