I don't know why people think Animals don't have intellect lol
They might not have same kind like us but they definitely have intellect.
Many have situational awareness (while hunting or keeping eye on surroundings), some show problem solving skills (octopus, crows), some have self awareness, sometimes they even show emotional and social intelligence (in animals living in groups), some has linguistic intelligence as well

That would be at the same level of stupidness as to say he was a leftist or a islamist. This guy was nothing but a fraud. He was not even a real doctor (his colleagues called him Dr. Google) or muslim.
No true AfDler would kill christians on a christmas market, the same goes for the left.
It's a shame this motherfucker did not share the same fate as his american counterpart and was killed by the police.

Studies won't help you here. The question of if the will needs an internal reason to choose is a philosophical one, not an empirical once because the will is a conceptual faculty, not a material or bodily one
You may not be able to move towards the button, but the question of the hypothetical isn't if your choice could come true, but if you could make a choice.
I may not be able to fly my flapping my wings, but I can still choose to want to do that even if my choice is unable to be fully realized due to me not being a bird
This presumes the will is something physical and visible to us, a baseless assumption you will now have to prove for the sake of argument
All of your studies presume this as well. It's a baseless assumption. I reject it
You haven't demonstrated anything.
Studies only show that in every particular observed instance, it follows a particular pattern or does so in a particular way
Your argument is that because the will tends to move on account of some internalized reason, it must
But again...with the swan example.
Just because only swans 3ft tall have been found, doesn't mean it's impossible for there to be a 3.2ft tall swan.
Just because the will has only ever been observed to move due to some internalized reason, does not mean it's impossible for it to move without one

Lmao I don't really care, maybe it is maybe it isn't, I was using banter
Remember, all things are composed of form and matter.
The intellect, or the human mind resides in the form of the human and is not located anywhere in the body.
Point to me where the "intellect" or the action of "thinking" is in the body. You can't, because to think is to engage in abstraction which is necessarily an immaterial function, which can only be accounted for by an immaterial faculty.

None of these are functions of an intellect.
An intellect is just a capacity for abstraction, or abstract thought
An animal is a purely sensory creature that can derive all the data from something, but is not able to abstract about the thing
For example, a dog can have particular knowledge about his owner, the way he smells, looks etc., but the dog cannot understand the concept of "owner" which all humans who own dogs can be universally considered; that is to say the dog can have particular knowledge (which is purely material) but not universal knowledge which requires abstraction

To be honest, this guy gave me the hope of being able to discuss with a reasonnable person here. But then.. I saw that he was not at all willing to rethink his vision or argumentation and started to be disrespectfull
A high point followed by a big dissapointement. this was the last straw.
I'm taking my spaceship out.
