Hi Evgenii Rudnyi Unless it is drunk, life must have governance, which means it needs intelligence as a governor.

However, without such a measure, a statement that life is mostly unintelligent is ill-defined. In general, if we assume inexorable physicals laws, for example the M-theory from Grad Design, then it is unclear to me what the meaning of the next statement could be: "The behavior of this conglomerate of particles and fields is more intelligent than of that conglomerate of particle and fields."
