If trueintelligence involves the ability to view and understanding widely differentthings from multiple different perspectives, an aptitude for grasping a widerange of truths, relationships, and meanings, and the capacity for abstract andsymbolic thought, then it follows logically that the contention that one canreduce reality to only one of its modes, to know it in only one of its forms,is an unintelligent claim.
Science doesnot contend that reality can be reduced to a single ontological level, on thecontrary, science asserts that reality is in fact, multileveled, it assertsthat the four dimensions of existence that we call reality, are contingent andrelative to a greater reality of more dimensions. Science quite explicitlypoints to a greater reality of which we cannot have certain knowledge, and ofwhich we can only speak in metaphorical ways.
