<Literate people do not need to invent new definitions of common terms.>

Poppycock... the english language means different things depending on context ESPECIALLY in specialized areas like we're talking about. Scientists debate what entails "intelligence"... Darwin himself thought a certain worm displayed intelligence, others disagree(d). In this realm science meets social science... definitions and context are crucial if you want to have something meaningful to say.

< So let us appreciate and value the life we have and not get too caught up in what is intelligence or why do dogs smell so many things or horses run fast...>

Well, said... "amen"! -ggg-
