Explanations for God can be considered scientific; Christian Science, ID, etc. It's all in the eyes of the beholder.

I think the attempt to monopolize the definition of science is a very poor substitute for thought. Characterize something as unscientific and it sounds like you're really saying something. Far better is to consider the theory or hypothesis and then apply logic, observation, etc.

I'm not that big a fan of ID as it's usually stated. You can accept it and still be as far from a Christian as any atheist. But I argue from the ID standpoint at times to illustrate the weaknesses of some ideas that are considered more "scientific". What really counts is truth and limiting the discussion with artificial labels just truncates a realistic consideration of truth claims. "Scientific" truth is not more true than any other kind of truth.
