I think there is a lot to this. How can earth not be a living organism, albeit a giant one. We have the earth consuming in continental collisions where one plate is subsumed under another ( there is a technical word for that but I cannot think of it at the moment). We have the earth spewing in volcanism. We have all sorts of interactions with temperature and currents in the ocean and continental drift. And finally we have the ability as human viruses to attack and change weather patterns in global warming and to affect the oceans with garbage. Allison
