Blayne Responded, "I tend to agree with the keysters on this"
To which I would like to reply:
But what about the dog, or the monkey, or the whale, or the cricket, or the
frog, or the eagle, or the redwood, or the granite face of Yosemite?
Do these not have the opportunity to increase in intelligence? Is there a
cap on how far they may progress? How would you like to be them and only be
able to go so far?
Do these not have intelligence? And if they do have intelligence, cannot
that intelligence be added upon?
Have you not observed a gradation of enlightenment in the animal kingdom?
Some animals are more ferocious, some more gentle, some more stupid, some more
quirky, some more funny?
A gradation tells me there is a gamut of growth. What happens when an
animal intelligence reaches its zenith of growth? what then? Nowhere? Why not
graduate to the beginning level of human existence and begin the quest in that
kingdom? If humans can graduate to godhood, becoming members of the kingdom of
God, why couldn't animals graduate to humanhood, becoming members of the
kingdom of man?
