As I understand it, viruses have no metabolism, do not grow, do not excrete waste, can't reproduce independently, and -- the biggest one of all -- do not respond to stimuli. Thus, they aren't living things, or organisms, or 'creatures'. I'm just a layman vaguely recalling what I learned in high school, but it seems to me viruses are basically just a glitch in nature, something that's almost alive but not quite, and as a result can't (significantly) evolve and only exists to destroy. Anyway, OP, you do realize there are plenty of viruses that ignore humans, right? The canine distemper virus that'll murder your dog gives zero fucks about the 6 billion hairless apes crowding the planet. ninotoreS fucked around with this message at 22:52 on Feb 19, 2015 |
