You claim a priori the results of evolution are indistinguishable from the products of intentional design by an intelligent consciousness. I can claim that the results of evolution are indistinguishable from the products of an unintentional design by environmental and genetic factors.
I agree with both of these claims, because the results are irrelevant of intent. Put another way, the definition of intent depends on the definition of intelligence, and I'm defining intelligence as "that which appears to be intelligent".
