Get the terminology right! Remember the whole Evolution is "just a theory" thing? Theories must be supported by factual evidence, and be subjected to peer review. As it stands, these guys are "hypothesizing."
If ID is true, then it's adherents must accept the possibility said "designer" could be an Extraterrestrial - meaning humankind is itself, a Science Experiment!
I think it's a combination of BOTH! I have several friends who have worked at Microsoft, both as contract employees, and regular staff - OH the stories I have heard!
I read recently in some tech article online that the author doubted Microsoft's commitment towards their Security Initiative, and cleaning up their code. I have no DOUBT that Microsoft is committed to cleaning up their code... what I doubt is their ABILITY to clean up their code.
It seems to me that over the last few years I have heard a LOT of reports of asteroid near-misses - much more so than in the 80's or 90's. Unfortunately, I think it's going to take an asteroid/comet impact, over a population center, before the humans "in power" even begin to "get it."
Recent movies aside, the thought of a HUGE rock (or solid chunk of iron) falling from the sky, is so completely beyond the experience of most humans, as to be practically ludicrous.

With Richard Chamberlain... simply awful!
I've heard from several friends that if you have the opportunity to see Highlander 2 for free - don't... so I haven't.
I've also heard that Battlefield Earth is dreadful.
