I am making the ant what it has to be for the hypothetical to have any relevance at all. If you want to claim that the ant can't think, that's all well and good, but the situation ceases to be comparable to the one that exists for humans.

That is a very large "if".

Oh, good. So you do have evidence, then.

Let's see it.

No, it remains stupid however you think about it.

Having a short, finite existence is not equivalent to having no existence, no matter how large you make your scale.
"Owl," said Rabbit shortly, "you and I have brains. The others have fluff. If there is any thinking to be done in this Forest - and when I say thinking I mean thinking - you and I must do it."
