Ok lets turn a microscope into a telescope. We are looking for life like us and compared to the universe we really are less than a microscopic infestation in a single cell.
Is the some way to test to see if the universe is alive.
All right now that everyone has stopped laughing and or rolling their eyes... I ask the question seriously.
Most of humanity, well perhaps only some of humanity, then again perhaps it is only a vast minority of humanity but certainly I know, from observation, that humans are not the only creatures that live and think.
So I seriously repeat the question; is there any reason for denying the possibility that the universe is a living thinking entity.
And as a follow up question; can any one think of a way to test the hypothesis that the universe is alive?
