In your example you are assuming that mammals other than cats and mice exists and then you go on to conclude they exist.No, shit-for-brains. I know animals other than cats exist because I've seen them. And I know evolutionary systems which are not man-made exist, because biological evolution is not man-made.
I agree that animals other than cats exists...so lets stop talking about that. I agree that evolutionary systems which are not man made exists....so lets stop talking about that. These are straw man arguments.
Consider the following propositions:
Proposition 1: all initial implementations of the process of evolution require intellects.
Proposition 2: all initial implementations of the process of evolution do not require intellects.
There is observational evidence to support proposition 1 (every time we've seen an evolutionary system implemented, it required an intellect). There is no observational evidence to support proposition 2. Why should anyone believe proposition 2?
