Intelligence is not a simple thing.
It involves recognising and ordering patterns of information, then building relationships between these patterns, based on past experience.
It seems unlikely to me that %26#039;something%26#039; that works in this way, could have existed %26#039;forever%26#039;.
Complex systems like intelligence, need considerable time to come about, and an awful lot of trial and error.
On the other hand, I can see how energy might have existed indefinitely. In all of human experience, we have never been able to create energy out of nothing, or destroy it entirely. It only ever changes from one state to another.
The way energy changes and interacts in different situations, is exactly what you need for complex systems like intelligence, to come about. Add unimaginably long periods of time into the mix and it shouldn%26#039;t come as much of a surprise, that something as complicated as human beings might develop eventually.|||If this is directed to me, I never said, intelligence was immoral. God gave us intelligence, we did not get it on our own. Who do you think gave Einstein his brain? God did. I told you, the bible says he gets the credit for everything. But mankind is very sinful so we can make the intelligence God gave us into something ugly. Look how we kill babies through abortion. That%26#039;s intelligence gone bad. We still and lie to get any and everything we desire. Yes, we are intelligent, we have to be, God said, he created mankind in his own image. But we are also wicked with the intelligence.|||God is clearly impossible, but you%26#039;re not going to be able to use logic with that bunch.|||Because Creator God Made %26quot;Intelligence%26quot; in the first place and He is not the author of confusion, dude!|||it%26#039;s not your intelligence that%26#039;s immortal, it%26#039;s your essence, your true Self.
