Biocentric Universe?!?!?!?

The Biocentric Universe Theory: Life Creates Time, Space, and the Cosmos Itself | Cosmology | DISCOVER Magazine

this is the coolest thing I've ever heard!

A universe based around life.

Think about it, the stem cell is such a complex molecule. It will NEVER be able to be synthesized no matter how much we know.

Could we be going the wrong way with technology?

For instance this...
Scientists Fabricate Organic Transistor with Improved Performance

If they can create an organic electronic transistor that's more efficient than any synthetic technology we have, then shouldn't that be a hint?

There could be infinite possibilities with chemicals to create organic technology. Is it possible?

Instead we are all going towards synthetic resources like metals and plasma, what if ancient civilizations had bio-degradable technology we will never know about?

Mmm...great thought for my day, man!

And I totally understand and love this theory as well. I think it also is the next logical step, as well as giving way to the ultimate question; what is 'under the hood' of life itself? What makes life live? It seems we'll eventually come down to some intangible and ever-present force that will most likely match the description of what many religious and spiritual beliefs call "God" (or spirit, source, creator, etc..).

To me, it seems the Biocentric theory is almost a given in my worldview, but it's the design (dare I say, intelligent even) that everything exudes that really is at the root of the question we are asking. If the universe gives birth to life and life gives birth to cognition and intelligence, then is it illogical to say the Universe is also cognitive, feeling and intelligent?

I agree, completely.
