If this is the case, then intelligent processes are the result of unintelligent forces (properties of substance);
If this is the case, the results of intelligent processes are ultimately the result of nonintelligent forces;
Therefore, if anything is the effect of an intelligence, it is a consequence of unintelligent causes;
Therefore, it is false that things that bear the hallmarks of intelligence require a cause that is intelligent.
A practical example?
Humans are ultimately descended from prokaryotes. Humans are intelligent. Prokaryotes are not.
