229- Difference between Materialists and Theists?

The Mechanism Of The Creation 167- The Questions by Mr. Maleki Moayyeri, the Respectable Scientist and Chemist at Azerbaijan Textile Co

Regarding the difference between those who believe in monotheism and atheists is that the materialists consider nature as a non-intelligent entity, while monotheists consider nature intelligent. It makes no difference what they call this intelligence. Be it God or nature, these are merely names. Nature possesses intelligence and awareness because nothing exists in this universe that is void of intelligence. Intelligence is something bestowed upon every being according to their mental capacity. Even animals have intelligence, running away when in peril, and their defense and endeavor in continuing life are intelligent indicators. Plants have intelligence too. Indeed, all beings have intelligence. For instance, unless the planet earth has intelligence, it cannot cultivate plants. So, animals and plants and objects and soil all have intelligence according to their capacity. There is no non-intelligent being in nature.
My dear brother, how could you possibly imagine that nature has no intelligence?1
