[MD] intellectual cells

[Arlo Bensinger]

[Adrie]
Do cells contain intellect? Probably they do , for some reasons. Even 
the most simple cell performs his qualities in combination with the 
other cells, the cluster of cells contains the value. The cluster of 
cells, make a human, a horse , or a fish, or a flower, whatever..

[Arlo]
How do you see this as evidence of the cell's "intellect"? What 
characteristics of "intellect" do you see at play here?

[Adrie]
The Mitochondrial dna in every cell, contains all the 
blueprints of life, for any individual flower, fisch, human.

[Arlo]
Are you saying that "Mitochondrial DNA" also "has intellect"? What 
about its components? Does,say, "Cytochrome b" also "have intellect"? 
What about further down? Do carbon atoms "have intellect"?

[Adrie]
Even the most simple cell managed to transpond his dna by inheritance 
towards further generations.

[Arlo]
Again, what characteristic of "intellect" do you see evidenced here?

[Adrie]
Does this contain "intellect"? value? quality?

[Arlo]
Well, I think the patterns you point to demonstrate value, for sure. 
And further I think we can say this is evidence of the response of 
the pattern to its environment (enacting value preference).

It seems to me you are conflating this ability to respond to Quality 
with "intelligence". Would this then demonstrate that carbon atoms 
"had intelligence" when they combined to form, say, "Cytochrome b"?
