I really like what you are saying here, but I don't get the part about how failure of intelligence leads to cancer. Am I being too literal?

That’s just my perspective of the negentropy thing. In terms of actual cancer, when DNA breaks down, you have cells that just wildly reproduce without structure until the organism dies. Schrödinger and other people working on this kind of biophysics actually called DNA intelligence, so in terms of really literal ideas, that’s exactly how it works. So I extended that to say whenever people don’t use their intelligence you get like a societal cancer, people running around acting crazy and breaking everything. That’s just how I see it.
