Animate and inanimate matter? Really!


Most scientists differentiate living matter from non-living and would insist that the molecules and other tiny particles would be non-living, well, that makes as much sense as to say that if you take a set of Legos and keep stirring them for a billion years, eventually they'll fall into a functional shape of a living creature. I don't think so.
I suspect that nothing living can be accidentally built from non-living particles. Either everything is alive or nothing is alive.
Here is an interesting experiment with the tiny metal particles that could be supporting my direction of thinking:

In the experiment tiny metal bits seemingly come alive. Please watch the videos! Be patient, for there is an IBM commercial first, just ignore it; the videos are well worth the wait!!!!
