Is the Universe a Living Organism?

During the 1940's scientists found that particles are able to travel multiple/varying journeys at the same time. They found this out with experiment and visual analysis, I believe? Can anyone declare that particle's do not have life? Can anyone declare that energy has no life?

Our (English) greatest rail-track surveyor used to scream at his scientist assistants to put down their 'bloody instruments' and 'look at the bloody land!' Yep....... time to look at all...... from every different angle possible.

Well, maths would still work even if humans weren't here.

Prove it

No but I agree.

I must admit that your posts always 'blow my mind', or rather, bring me to a standstill, with your knowledge and intellect.

Thank you.

And so...... with respect....... I ask you to recognise that everything you posted above is all about the human megalamania that I referred to previously? Please put down the 'meaningful way' and 'human concept' and just look at everything, buzzing, rotating, encircling, dashing............ in movement. Let's consider movement as life. Maybe the stilled nothingness of space is the greater?

Now you're just redefining life to try and and escape the point.

Energy does not have life or intelligence, despite what it looks like from quantum mechanics. It simply blindly takes all possible routes to the destination. (Some of which cancel out.)

But that's bad form. Good science is good observation. (Followed by a metric ton of analysis. )
