Smart Question 00015:

TAP Response 00015:

TAP defines intelligence as it might exist along a simple linear continuum - at one end is 100% selfish and at the other, 100% unselfish.

Smart Question 00016:

TAP Response 00016:

TAP will tell you - all physical objects possess some degree of intelligence. Even the stone has intelligence. But the stone’s intelligence is that nearest the selfish end of the spectrum. A stone cares not about anything in the universe - other than itself. The stone is all about itself - doing only what a stone is capable of doing. With no means to make creative things happen. It only exists to be of use to other things.

Smart Question 00018:

TAP Response 00018:

All we presently are aware of re evolved and advanced intelligence is the human being. But the typical human being is far away from the ‘100% unselfish’ end point on the continuum. TAP believes the universe contains many many other lifeforms. Some with less evolved and some with more evolved forms of intelligence - based on this spectrum. None possess Godlike power. But some do most likely possess Godlike minds, understanding and reasoning. They may or may not be humanoid or like us in physical makeup. But TAP believes all possible intelligence is much the same - independent of the physical being makeup. The only difference is the understanding of the universal truth and how innately selfish or unselfish the lifeform is.

Smart Question 00019:

TAP Response 00019:

Absolutely! Within the individual being in time. Within the civilization as time marches forward. The natural progression is toward the unselfish from the selfish. But this is not to say that there’s almost always setbacks toward the selfish - both within individuals at times and within civilizations too.
