This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

What a load of shit. The TL;DR: near as I can tell is that because Individual cells can survive outside of the body they're arguing that's a 3rd state that's neither alive or dead.
That is some bullshit. A cell is either dead, or alive. Didn't these people learn that living cells make up living tissue? Tissue makes up organs? Organs make up systems? (like the respiratory, the digestive) and so on and on?
