the point is that science doesn't teach something just because its possible. science teaches whatever model produces the best predictions. if ID ever outmodels evolution and/or produces even slightly competetive predictions, then, the model would be more than welcome in the science room

Well said. The thing is that ID by definition is a model that could never produce more than 0 predictions. That's why it's not science no matter how one looks at it. It might be exciting, comforting, "easier" to digest, but it's not science. It's a myth disguised as "another possible theory".
