There’s no such person or thing as an ID scientist because ID is not science. It’s religion. So, I’d like to know who Eddie claims he is conversing with. Name 'em and claim 'em™.
Like the other beings in religion, they are imaginary. If ID is science, it would have made advances in at least one of the fields of science like medicine and vaccine production, modern farming and pest control for crops, anatomy, biology, anthropology, biogeography, fishery management, biochemistry. So even if we give the Johnsonist gospel of intelligent design creation magic evangelists everything they ask for and call it science it would be the most useless, worthless most unproductive scientific hypothesis in the history of science. For that reason, the Johnsonist gospel of intelligent design creation magic has been consigned to the trash bin of history.
