Carbon II
(an explanation of sorts)
(an explanation of sorts)
All life on earth, being sprung from a single reaction - the genesis of modern life, the result of a bolt of lighting into the salty, acidy pools of a once-hot rock called Precambrian Earth - can show that it is a unified reaction, that all life is connected by the fact that it is the indisputable result of the primary genesis, and disregarding the possibility that multiple reactions have occurred, instilling life.* This interconnection of life, this recognition of the mediocrity of life's insignificant spacial range brings about more understanding in its relative uniqueness and also insignificance.
Life, being such a grand topic to humans, is thus because humans give life boundless subjective meaning, that life is much more than it seems. Well, it isn't. Life is interesting, yes, but it is universally unnatural and a self sustaining rebellion to the universe. This had led me to define life - not carbon, which I had described in my prior post - as such:
*the origins of life are, of course, still in dispute. My carbon theory is in relation to the ideals based on an earth-originated life, or even an extraterrestrial spawning of life on earth that had been separated the moment it had been spawned on the planet.

The Life's Force Conjecture
"Life does have a force, but it isn't some kind of energy that embodies each individual, some spirit of every Euglena, Magnolia and Tigress. It is simple the relative view of life's progression and movement through time, the biosphere's literal force. The force it imposes on Earth (which Earth doesn't seem to mind), the force it brings onto itself, and the force it brings to time. This force can sometimes seem boundless, like when it is in the hands of homo Sapiens or Delphinidae.
This force is what is definite to life, not organic components, not amino acids, or RNA, but the generalized self-sustaining mechanisms and reactions that continue and grow. This - which may be pleasing to transhumanists - suggests that life cannot be defined, solely, by its components, and to be defined as life, something must only meet the characteristics described earlier. More specifically, this also suggests that artificial intelligence, or A.I. is subject to be described as life. In some future society, where technology becomes incorporated into chemically biological systems, these organisms - most probably homo Sapiens - will not have lost their livelihood, and instead, will be just as much "life" as they would be without their post-humanistic attributes."
