Let's not forget the root of intelligent design. It was created by Americans who wanted to find ways to get around Court rulings in the U.S. which prohibited the teachings of creationism in science classes at school. The idea was that, instead of saying God per se, the proponents would refuse to identify the designer but merely say that someone or something designed these things outside the process of natural selection. In that sense, it is a facade.
