Here's an excerpt:
If intelligence is like Mickey Mouse, we might say that anything that passes a Turing Test needs to pay taxes. But likeness of thought is not necessarily thought.
If intelligence is like a work of Banksy, we might say that non-human thought is fake or forgery. But in the secular worldview, there is no author of our human minds. And there is no authenticity without an author.
If intelligence is like champagne, we might say that only human intelligence is authentic: all other intelligence is “animal” or “alien” or “something else”. But there’s nothing special about the human brain: any sufficiently-large computer could simulate one. And it doesn’t matter whether the thoughts occur in Champagne, Earth, or Champagne, Mars. Intelligence is intelligence independent of the origin.
If intelligence is like meat, then we might say that non-human minds might be intelligent. We may say that non-conscious agents with intelligent behavior are “artificial”, while conscious ones are “synthetic”.
