I can appreciate that intelligence could be a biological/chemical process, but what are your thoughts on consciousness?
Here is a question for you:
Can you imagine a universe without consciousness?
If you say yes, then it can't be true, as you are using consciousness to view that universe in your imagination.
If you say no, then there is eternal/cognizant consciousness in the universe (or perhaps hovering around the periphery!).
