I thought it was just that he prayed for some juice or something and then he got tired so he put his head down and it turned out there was like a coat or something draped over juice so he found a drink.

or maybe it was both.

He told me that his mother intelligently designed the drive over to him with the orange juice.

Thanks Universal Mind, however I don't think I really got into the bulk of my Intelligent Design argument, bluefinger was right I really didn't present much of a good argument for ID, I backtracked several times into Evolution and Abiogenesis and I shouldn't have. I didn't really get around to the basis of information, which I really feel it presents a great deal of strength for my argument. I think I'm going to start a new thread just on ID and information because I have a lot to explain.

I look forward to that thread, however, in the mean time, here's something that came up in the NewScientist recently is actually an amazing find:

Bacteria Make Major Evolutionary Shift in Laboratory

May be a bit technical, but considering the meticulous testing methods involved, I'd say it is pretty hard to refute. Whilst the exact changes in the bacteria genome are still being traced, they were able to isolate when the key changes to the genome occurred in the generations of bacteria cultures, and thus were able to replay the same evolutionary path in order to confirm their suspicions from frozen culture samples of certain generations. All for being able to metabolise citrate, one of the nutrients used in the culture mediums that E. Coli are known for not being able to metabolise.

haven't watched it yet but I liked the title. "Foolish Atheists"
