Ha,ha! You hit some nerve by saying the obvious my friend. You have to say “evolution did it” to be in!

@Darian Draught Evolution is a pretty slippery term. You can mean anything between antibiotic-resistance (one single mutation needed - you have usually a useless drug from the beginning, two coordinated mutations needed - you can have a really good drug for many decades, three-coordinated mutations and you have Darwinian evolution breathing heavily given that the earth is finite - quite irritating facts, I know) and that pretty much every kind and feature of life on earth (the DNA replication systems and all irreducibly complex systems included) is a product of some sort of unguided mutations and natural selection. Not so easy to miss it

Funny that we want to discover what intelligence is...but then in the same sentence we make a most unintelligent statement, that being intelligence somehow evolved! It's interesting how the created often suddenly thinks it's more intelligent than the creator even to the point of dismissing inexcusable intelligence. What kind of mind programs a bees brain? Or keeps the universe In perfect harmony. To illustrate, man is going to great lengths to program AI ..and yes, AI is now showing extreme intelligence, even to the point of having a consciousness! However, no matter how intelligent that robot may be, or how it may even express it's more intelligent than humans! The fact will always stand...it was created and programmed by man no matter how much it trys to deny that fact. In the same way ...humans in ignorance feel that they are so Intelligent that they can actually claim they are not Gods creation...and that we appeared from fairy dust! To claim such is showing not intelligence, but rather quite the opposite! It goes against all logic and reason...kind of like someone denying gravity exists...they can fight the science.. write books, blogs etc to argue the fact...but at the end of the day...if they jumped off a cliff to put their theory to the test, they would soon realize they made a massive mistake!
