Logic of Ignorance

Steve Jones, professor of genetics at University College London, writes in the UK Telegraph, on why intelligent design is the logic of ignorance. He invokes Darwin in referring to the id freaks as savages who view what they can't understand as creations of god. Nature is chaotic and the process of evolution has random changes injected into each iteration of life. That explains the complexity of life just it explains the flaws (or differences if you prefer to be nice) that show up in life. If life was designed by some intelligence -- and let's face it, they mean god -- then why are we not perfect? Was the intelligent designer not so intelligent after all? Or is it simply that the proponents of intelligent design are idiots?
