Intelligence certainly IS a biological category. What else could it be? A magical category? A mystical category? It's quite amazing the positions some DP members will take.All the talk of intelligence is irrelevant. "Animal" is a biological category. Biologically, we are animals.
And in any case all talk of what category intelligence belongs to is irrelevant because the whole point of OP was a deprecation of the difference between humans and other animals, and there is no reasonable way to depreciate our intellectual differences, no matter what category you try to force intelligence into.
