[MD] expanded list Platt

[Arlo Bensinger]

[Platt]
I know you didn't make the claim. I did. Try. You can do it.

[Arlo]
I know what my answers would be. I am asking you what YOUR answers 
are, since YOU made the claim that both "Quality" and "cells" "have 
intelligence". Since I've already said "no" to both of these, I am 
asking YOU to substantiate your claim.

Enough with the evasions, Platt. Really. These are legitimate 
questions pertaining to your claims.

[Arlo repeats his questions, again]
Can you explain the difference (if any) between saying "cells have 
intelligence", "man has intelligence" and "Quality has intelligence"? 
What does it mean to "have intelligence"?

Also, if "cells have intelligence", where does that intelligence 
reside? We localize human intelligence in the neural mass in our 
heads (I doubt we'd say an amputee becomes "less intelligent" upon 
losing a limb, or that such an operation would impact her/his 
"intelligence" at all).

Do you think carbon atoms ever had "intelligence"? Do they now? At 
what level does "intelligence" finally disappear. You say that "cells 
have intelligence", do you think Ribosomes or Mitochondrion "have 
intelligence"? What about more macrotic cellular constructs, does a 
stomach or a heart "have intelligence"?
