You said I only looked at computer simulations of evolution. That simply wasn't true. I have looked and continue to look for any evolutionary system I can set my eyes upon. I found Chinese Whispers and it turns out to be an excellent demonstration of evolution. It also turns out to require intellect.
Maybe you or Rhythm can come up with an example of an evolutionary system which doesn't require an intellect to either design it or be a component of it. An objective example and not something you believe didn't require intellect as a matter of faith.
