I am familiar with the work of the intelligent design movement. For a deeper historical perspective on the creationist movement, I recommend that you read God's Own Scientists, by Christopher Toumey. In order to have an informed opinion regarding the legitimacy of evolutionary theory to understand the emergence and propagation of biological diversity, non-academics should at least familiarize themselves with the basic concepts. Good places to start are the Evolution Series available from PBS and information on the website for the National Center for Science Education. For a truly enlightening experience, readers with sufficient determination to get through the 19th century prose should read Darwin's _Origin of Species_. While evolutionary theory has come a long way since Darwin, it remains an astounding treatise on the core aspects of natural selection (which constitutes only a portion of evolutionary theory as a whole).

That said, any discussion concerning the relative merits of evolutionary theory versus intelligent design must ultimately come down to verifiable data and reasonable interpretations, and my challenge to you still stands: Find 10 data-based reports that better support an intelligent design perspective rather than that put forth by evolutionary theory.
