Well said, G.

Intelligence is irrelevant for choosing purposes in regards to testing products or advancements in areas.

As G. said, if intelligence were the measuring stick in how we treat beings, then those in vegetative states or those who are severely retarted whose mental states measure less than a primate or some other animal, would be or should be targeted for testing. I reject that.

And, G. has made a good case for questioning our intelligence (or lack of it) in how our species in general lives its life. I would also add that it is quite dumb to not live in harmony with the ecological systems of one`s environment. Not intelligent at all.
