Which leads to the second claim of the intelligent design argument: the physical marks of design are visible in aspects of biology. This is uncontroversial, too.
Michael Behe NYT article.
So does this mean that Behe, or other ID advocates, won't need mandatory labeling on food products to indicate the presence of genetically modified ingredients?
Seriously, how would Behe, or anyone else, given two tomatoes be able to determine which one was engineered in a lab by man, and which was engineered by God?

We don't see the hand of God reaching out of the clouds and placing a new animal on the planet, but through theories of probability, we can infer they were designed.
To which 'theories of probability' do you refer, exactly?

Re: design or not, it's not "obvious"

Quite frankly, I think your claim that you can "obviously" detect "absence of design" is as outrageous as the ID claim that they can "obviously" detect "design".
Another great point. I also like the stacked rocks example.
