Obviously we don't see eye to eye. Let's break this down to some more basic ideas, and see where exactly we differ in our understanding.

Here are my logical assumptions.

1. We cannot know with certainty from direct experience that God exists or not.

2. If God does not exist, we will never know if there is a God or not.

3. If God does exist, He can break rule #1, and communicate with us if He wishes.

Let's discuss this. Maybe my logic is off here.

Another big point where we don't agree, is the definition of Intelligent Design. You seem to think it is simply a disguise for creationism. I think it is a conclusion based on actual data. My understanding is that proponents of ID, do not deny scientific findings, and they do not promote the Biblical Genesis story.

I got most of my understanding of ID from that film I mentioned "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed" with Ben Stein.

Let me know where you're getting your information about Intelligent Design.
