and we are debating the merits. if we just sat back and agreed then this would not be a discussion forum. and it would not serve the purpose for which it was designed.

I'm not asking anyone to agree. Perhaps you are referring to someone else.
I'm just pointing out the reasonably logical assumption, that in general the longer a species has to evolve, the greater the chances of it reaching our level of intelligence.
Of course we have exceptions....and "lucky breaks" etc...If the dinosaur had not been wiped out the rise of us and mammals may not have eventuated as it did.
