L.E: I don't think there is a heirarchy of intelligence. Intelligence is the

universal criteria of substance, so to speak. It permeates and is itself the

expression of life.

The atom may be filled with the same intelligence as the human mind. There

certainly is, on earth at least, the evolution of forms, chemical, molcular

and life forms. Is a human more intelligent than an ant? I'm not sure, are you?

Each is intelligent in its own realm for its own survival. We have created

the means of our own destruction. How intelligent is that? Lifeforms have

come and gone, just as we humans may come and go. Perhaps the most foolish

expression of our intelligence is our pride and sense of superiority. How many

millions are waiting for Jesus to return? How intelligent is that? Mind is

limited to its experiences for the most part, and can't understand everything.

Only a few can have the knowlege of life in its deeper realms. Most are

interested in football scores. How intelligent is that?
