Intelligence is an Illusion..

There can always be only two conditions: Programmed or random.
To clarify...every action is either a simple chain of cause and effects.
Or it is "somehow" immune to cause and effect...i.e. programed.

Obviously you'll agree that intelligence can't be random. (randomness would actually mean opposite of intelligence here).
But, intelligence can't be programmed as well...right? ..Otherwise, your wrist watch would be called intelligent..which it is not.

So if there are only two possible conditions -- programmed or random -- and intelligence cant be either of these...then intelligence must not exist. It must(has to be) be an illusion.

This (wonderful) argument amuses me because...I'm pretty sure it is wrong..but do not know why.

And so you now know that..I'm amused by things that almost make sense(but actually not).
(This in itself is further evidence that intelligence is an illusion...at least my own, if not your's)
