1. Anything as X as the Universe must have been created
2. God was not created
3. therefore, God is less X than the Universe
If you're a Christian, I assume that you believe statement #2, and if you believe in ID, presumably you can find an adjective (perfect, wondrous, etc.) that can be used to replace the X in statement #1 to create a statement which you believe, such as "anything as wondrous as the Universe must have been created". If you replace the X in statement #3 with the same adjective, logic dictates that either the resulting statement ("God is less wondrous than the Universe" in my example) is true, or that statement #1 or #2 is actually false.
Would anyone care to either 1) refute my logic, or 2) give me a value for X which creates three statements above, all of which you believe?
