You are wrong. Wheat grows because wheat intends to grow, so do the formers who grow it intend for it to grow. We have knowledge of the wheat, and that knowledge is intended into formation. That is not to say this knowledge can not be modified. Because it can. My trees grow super fast because I do magic on them. New branches can take 5 seconds to grow on them. That is because I intend for it to be so with my specialised "out of this world" knowledge.
It seems to me like if you take this a few steps further, you would be saying that wheat INTENDED to be domesticated, genetically engineered by Monsanto, sprayed with pesticides, sold to food companies, distributed in trucks, and then eaten by people.
Or that deer have no higher purpose or self will and are just hanging around waiting to be eaten by jaguars, but that's ok, because we're the jaguars. Deer should think positive and INTEND to be jaguars. Problem solved.
Oh... but then there'd be no deer, so the jaguar would have to... INTEND some?
