Eva,
You persist in not addressing the words of your antagonists, & respond
based upon your revisionist interpretations, ignoring parts that would be
inconsistent with your ideal.
See the second para. below. Note that Jay & I fully expect humans to either
revolt/self-destruct *or* to wake-up to the lessening of individual
freedoms required for the 'common good'. The "intelligence" you seek to
objectify is nothing more than total adaptive fitness to habitat, including
creative & scientific aspects. Humans are not divisible in actuality, only
by theoreticians.
