wtf, intellectual reasoning? When was the last time you saw someone trembling in fear and asked them "Hey could you reason me through the chain of logic that lead you to this state of abject terror"? That's ridiculous.

We are all animals, and animals are instinctual creatures, even the proudly self-proclaimed intelligent human.

Plants might not have brainwaves because... they...dont... have... brains...?

Shock and awe that different forms of life might conform to different rules than our own. Are plants intelligent? Define intelligence first. In most cases your definition will be something precludes plants so of course the answer will be no.

Broaden the spectrum and perhaps we may find the answer to be yes.
