Question

Is intelligence innate in all living things?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Have a great day?

Answer

YES. A big YES!brThe intelligence were talking about is the quotknowledgequot that every living entity is born with, and which allows it to adapt to the environment in order to survive. If you put a plant on a window sill, in a day or so it will have turned its leaves to face the light. Turn the plant around and in another day or so, it again will have turned its leaves to receive the light it needs to maintain its normal functions.brThe plant doesnt use logic to figure out that it needs light, or decide to turn its leaves around to face the window. It doesnt quotthinkquot and it isnt selfaware. Yet, the intelligence it possesses allows it to go from a tiny seed to a lush plant, to send roots into the soil to find water and nutrients, to search out and utilize light and air, to transform those elements into additional leaves, roots, sprouts, and even more seeds which will be carried on the wind to start the process all over somewhere else. Not random action, but intelligence. Not education, but inborn knowledge. brInnate Intelligence.brbrGood question my friend! Congrats!
