Please revise this to read "It can't be "real" intentionality
unless it has a mind, and, as I see it, minds can only arise
from brains."

I don't know how you do things "down under", but where I
come from it is considered bad form to attempt to close
an open philosophical issue by dictating what words must
mean.  Though I doubt that it is a very successful
tactic in any venue.
