What is Another phrase for original design?
Literal equivalents for 'original design' are limited only by time spent with a thesaurus and the context in which the phrase is being used. This question being under the Religion and Spirituality section leads me to believe that this may be in reference to the term 'Intelligent Design'. An alternative phrase for 'Intelligent Design' would be Creationism. The fallaciously labeled 'scientific theory' for the teleological proof of the existence of god--and in turn the divine nature of the universe--can be referred to by any phrase that denotes any theological concept [specific to Christianity¹] that claims [or in certain cases 'implies'] God to be the architect, designer, and/or initiator of aspects of the universe relating to it's creation and to living things². ¹"...the majority of principal intelligent design advocates are publicly religious Christians." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligent_design#Movement A point that should be made about the God of Intelegent Design being the 'Christian God' is that this removes those Christian denominations that have tendencies towards henotheistic views. ² An interesting area of inquiry regarding the application of Intelegent Design is the qualifications and characteristics of 'living things'. In specific, the differences between the scientific and judeo-christian requirements.
What does design argument mean?
The design argument, also known as the teleological argument, is an argument for the existence of God based on the idea that the complexity and order in the natural world indicate the existence of a designer. It suggests that the intricate design and purposeful arrangement of the universe point towards an intelligent creator.

What is Intelligent Design Who founded it and What are its goals?
William Paley, of the 18th century, propounded the following; What if someone were to find a watch in a forest? A watch is complex and apparently tuned to fulfil a function; that of telling time. Paley extended the idea of complexity to living organisms and how functionally-fulfilling he presumed their complex structures to be. He claimed that a designer was obvious in the case of the watch and, due to such complexity in living organisms, a designer should be necessary for them as well.This designer became known as the 'intelligent designer' in the idea called Intelligent Design. The idea is that living organisms are too complex to have arisen in any form other than their present one, the one that fulfills the present function that organism and all its organs fulfill.Later, the Theory of Evolution, generated by Charles Darwin, disposed greatly of any Intelligent Design notions. But there was still creationism, the age-old explanation of life's structure and diversity that preceeded both the Theory of Evolution and Intelligent Design. Many creationists have always been negative of evolution and have tried to force creationism upon school curricula to remove evolution from classrooms. When creationism made no effect, 'creation science' was introduced as a 'more scientific' way to combat evolution in the classroom.Intelligent Design these days has morphed from Paley's apparently earnest and innocent suggestion of 'complexity requires design' to a great attack on evolution. Michael Behe found backing for Intelligent Design, saying that biochemical pathways were too complex to go designerless. (He particularly pointed to the immune system.) Intelligent Design is now the replacement of 'creation science' since that didn't take off in school curricula. It insinuates that it is a 'scientific' creation-like argument. To gain approval, Intelligent Design denies any religiousness, denies the 'Intelligent Designer' is God or any god in any way. It also claims the 'Intelligent Designer' to be 'undetectable' and presumably supernatural.Intelligent Design is in fact, not only a curriculum-pushing 'theory', but a political movement, instigating the 2005 Dover district court cases. The explicit goal seems to be to extirpate evolution from schools. One wonders if Intelligent Design advocates want to expurgate the Theory of Evolution from science and society altogether. Perhaps many do. Intelligent Design shows the same disapproval to evolution that creationism and 'creation science' do. The judge of the 2005 court cases did identify a religious life-force behind the Intelligent Design advocates within the court case. Intelligent Design is simply creationism in disguise.Notice that at no point along the way has anyone evaluated Intelligent Design and certainly not the proponents themselves to see if it stands up to evolution. The Theory of Evolution is still as robust as ever.
