Your problem here is that's not the question.

More to the point, by nature, a "telological question" is not scientific. Geoff's inability to understand that by asking a question that has "several fields intertwined" he is getting peanut butter in his chocolate. Just as with that wonderful Reese's Peanut Butter Cup, that has both things in one wonderful snack, the peanut butter doesn't stop being peanut butter, and the chocolate doesn't stop being chocolate. Of course ID answers his "telological question" affirmatively. Ask a religious question, get a religious answer. His main error is believing science answers the question negatively. The scientific answer to his question is, "are you an idiot?"
