Evolution vs Intelligent Design

In the interests of starting a flamewar, let's have a fun discussion about evolution and intelligent design! :)

If, and I emphasize the if, the universe is intelligently designed by some other being(s), then it would stand to reason that each and every little nook and cranny of the universe follows some type of logic, just waiting to be understood.

It would be as if we were presented with a finished product to reverse engineer. If we accomplish that, then we'd theoritically be capable of at least manipulating some aspects of these designs and produce results that may be currently unimaginable.

To use a loose example, it would be as if someone programmed a sentient AI capable of learning independently. If that AI realizes that it is an artificial construct that was designed by another... and somehow manages to learn to code, that AI can technically re-write itself to whatever form it wishes.

... sounds pretty sci-fi... then again, airplanes were once considered lunacy.
