"Intelligent design" refers any designers who are intelligent, in my book - supernatural or not.

It is true that I don't use "intelligent design" as an abbreviation for "the hypothesis that an intelligent designer created most organic beings". That abbreviation is basically a misuse of terminology - and needs killing off.
