You
know, there is intelligence in trees, as they seek the sun, and as such have
some type of consciousness, as to be unconscious, they would grow like robots,
in a sense of order, but they grow with their own sense of seeking, and thus
must be feeling, but not as us, with eyes to see, and a care to bear, but they
have their roots firmly embedded in the ground, a type of haven. But perhaps
this is not the case, and they are on an ‘auto drive’ consciousness, and are
thus unconscious, and an analogy of this would be a computer, we can programme
one, and it will function from that input alone, and not think for itself, in a
psych sense!
Nonetheless,
we cannot dispute the intelligence of trees, as they seek the sun, which is
evident all around us.
You
know, logic says that there was only one apple tree to start with, and that it
had its own genetic code, yet in Britain, there are over three hundred
different types, which is evidenced from reading their individual genetic
codes. Did all of these trees evolve separately, or did they branch off from
each other! If they branched off from each other, this indicates an intellect,
as in building on code, regardless of a psych sense. Computers can do likewise,
as in some programmes the input warrants them to act in a particular way, such
as picking up on particular words threading through the satellites in space,
and thus acting upon it.
Now
the computers have intellect, but this is unconscious, and were created by
humans, who are conscious. So if the trees don’t have a consciousness, what
consciousness created these!
(Logic
says that trees perhaps evolve through climatic and environmental conditions,
as species do, with God’s will.)

You are a very talented writer Andrew. enjoyed this early morning read.

Greetings Yvonne. Thank you for thinking so. Glad you enjoyed it. Blessings to you. Love love, Andrew.
DeleteThe nature of consciousness and how it arose is still a mystery. As humans, we've been pretty arrogant about our abilities when compared with other living things. I think that the apple trees branched off from a common source. You've been wrestling with some deep ideas, Andrew!
ReplyDeleteGreetings Louise. Life can be a mystery, and the origins of consciousness ability interesting. Humans can be needlessly dominant and hostile to other species we share our lovely planet with, which is sad, as I don't even like harming a fly! I have been on thinking mode lately, which I like. Blessings to you. Love love, Andrew.
