> dhw: Then why not acknowledge that the ability of the various cell communities to perceive and process information from the environment, to communicate with other cell communities, to decide which steps are necessary - even to the extent of innovation - constitutes a form of “intelligence”? If the “life plan” has not been preprogrammed, the cell communities must take the decisions themselves. They are therefore not automata.-Our only difference is that the biologic systems run under tight controls with feedback loops and other controls. They are engineered to make automatic decisions.-Note this discussion of systems biology which fits what I know from my education:-http://www.evolutionnews.org/2014/07/when_biologists087871.html
