Set Theory may apply here. The question at hand can be rephrased as, "Is  the phenomenon of intelligence a subset of the Universe, or is it a superset of the Universe, or are the sets of intelligence and the Universe in complete union with no over- or under-lapping?"

I, for one, appear to exist as a subsystem of the Universe and I arguably possess some rudimentary intelligence. If I can point to at least one other subsystem of the Universe that does not share this feature, then what does that say about the Universe as a whole?

Let's play around with this s'more. If I define my consciousness (as in the state of processing conceptual and perceptual information) as a subsystem of my physical body, does this make only parts of my body 'conscious'? Or rather than a superset-subset relationship, is there a union (in Set Theory terms) between my body and my consciousness, while the larger environment (e.g. Earth) remains a superset to the subset phenomenon of my consciousness?
