Firstly, the population would be about a tenth of what it now is, as it would not have been possible to do the genetic engineering to create the plant species which now support most of the world's population. Secondly, people would be dying at a young age, as there would not be the pharmaceuticals needed to fight disease. It is not a pretty picture.

between about 400 ad and about 800 ad the church had no serious opposition from either humanist thinkers or organised scholars.
western europe forgot that the earth was a spherical body suspended in space (the idea appears in ovid's metamorphoses) and went back to believing that the world was a flat disk with jerusalem at its centre.
piped water (common in all major cities since the time of the roman republic) stopped flowing as people unlearned how to build aqueducts (or even repair them). the tainted water drawn from rivers led to huge outbreaks of epidemic diseases.
the massive roads which led from rome to every corner of the empire were plundered for stone to build churches. trade and law enforcement stopped (neither merchants nor police forces could travel around) and crime and poverty became endemic.
literacy levels fell by something between a half and ninety per cent.
the ability to read greek disappeared from western europe (so nobody could even read the new testament in its original language).
it is called 'the age of the saints'; though some people call it 'the dark ages'.

Only a complete idiot would believe in such a scam belief, It's simply an outrageous lie that a few are trying to push on people, they really do have some real nut cases in the southern bible belt.

They would pray and God would annoint them and we would find cures and answers much faster just as many of the true scientific breakthroughs in healing and medicine came as a result of people who prayed. Now that we don't believe in intelligent design how many are on PILLS instead of getting actual treatment? Millions that's what. and it costs billions in pharmacy care. The devil loves it.

The Intelligent Design goes for anyone who can design inteligently.
So? I think if people thought better of themselves, they could intelligently design something.

You'd do better with a faith healer. Pasteur and Koch would have died as heretics for proposing the germ theory of disease.
