Unintelligent Design is a satirical reaction to the Intelligent Design movement which claims that "certain features of the universe and of living things are best explained by an intelligent cause, not an undirected process such as natural selection."[1] The basic proposition of Unintelligent Design is that the Creator messed up and instead of an intelligent one has an unintelligent Creation. It cites the amount of failed species as evidence for its theory.

The goal of Unintelligent Design is to show that the arguments used by Intelligent Design are faulty by using a similar trail of conclusions and highlighting the efforts of Creationists to remove the evolution theory from school curriculum. Similar to Intelligent Design it tries to portray its propositions as scientific. Unlike Intelligent Design it implies that only Evolution can explain the diversity of species.
