that's not a conspiracy, that's a totally valid possibility

Like shit it is.

Planets aren't alive.

Molten rock and metal
Not alive.

What makes you think planets are alive AND HAVE GENES.?
#24 to #23 - koobzacc (08/09/2012) [-]
It depends on how you define "alive" and "evolution"

evolution can just mean change due to more favored attributes. alive can mean anything: breathing, converting, changing, sexing; but most humans are arrogant enough to think they have it pinned down to veggies and animals

"but most humans are arrogant enough to think they have it pinned down to veggies and animals "
Because humans made up the word.

"
Homeostasis: Regulation of the internal environment to maintain a constant state; for example, electrolyte concentration or sweating to reduce temperature.
Organization: Being structurally composed of one or more cells, which are the basic units of life.
Metabolism: Transformation of energy by converting chemicals and energy into cellular components (anabolism) and decomposing organic matter (catabolism). Living things require energy to maintain internal organization (homeostasis) and to produce the other phenomena associated with life.
Growth: Maintenance of a higher rate of anabolism than catabolism. A growing organism increases in size in all of its parts, rather than simply accumulating matter.
Adaptation: The ability to change over a period of time in response to the environment. This ability is fundamental to the process of evolution and is determined by the organism's heredity as well as the composition of metabolized substances, and external factors present.
Response to stimuli: A response can take many forms, from the contraction of a unicellular organism to external chemicals, to complex reactions involving all the senses of multicellular organisms. A response is often expressed by motion, for example, the leaves of a plant turning toward the sun (phototropism) and by chemotaxis.
Reproduction: The ability to produce new individual organisms, either asexually from a single parent organism, or sexually from two parent organisms."


That's the definition of an organism, otherwise known as a living being.

Evolution is change over time. Since OP is talking about handling diseases, it is most probably biological evolution.
Let's have a look at the definition for that, shall we?
"Biological evolution refers to the changes over time that occur in living organisms. Biological evolution is defined as descent with modification. "

1. Planet is not a living organism
2. Therefore, it cannot evolve.

you realise our planet does all those thins...
it maintains temperatures due to a complext mechanism
life on it has an organizationy
you coud interpert the metabolism as the life and all forms of energy flows
its grows... it grew so far by absorving mass...
it adapts... any change in it´s mechanisms causes a change that will create another mechanism that works... (this includes response to stimuli)
now about the reproduction part that kills it...

our mind is nothing but electro-chemical impulses organized in a specific way (yet to be discovered)... so are you saing that it is impossible for something a bilion times bigger than you share a similar energy flow? just because it is not proven it does no mean it is no possible, opening your mind and testing and proving it is not possible is what makes science evolve... i was said that man would never walk on the moon, eventually it was proven wrong, people of that time were just close-minded...

"now about the reproduction part that kills it... "
An organism fits ALL the requirements.
Therefore, a planet is not living.

Your argument is still invalid.
even despite "interpreting" all that crap
User avatar #55 to #54 - xankon (08/16/2012) [-]
you don´t understand what we are trying to say...
the planet may not be a living organism and crap
but it perhaps there is a chance it has a conscience, could be equal to ours... could be even weaker than a fucking virus... the point is there is a possibility it could be true (even though that probability would look something like 1 to "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" so many fuckin numbers that would fill up an entire city, and still remain a possibility, practicably (or however its written).

Note that this concept appears in several sci-fi books and in games....

I´m remembering a reference from dead space, when they crack the planet and it starts leaking the magnetic field... someone aboard the ship ears the sound (cant remember the instrument used) and says it´s almost like its crying, or dyeing (may not be exact quote)

Key word is could
Prove it, or it's irrelevant.
User avatar #58 to #57 - xankon (08/16/2012) [-]
key word is could... almost impossible... but it under a pile of other more probable things, but keep it anyway
User avatar #60 to #58 - mrgreatnames **User deleted account** (08/16/2012) [-]
I'll put it into the literally infinitely large pile of "Stuff that could be true"
Now, unless you got something other than "Well we don't know for sure" it's gonna stay in that pile.

The first pile is too big to care about.
Therefore irrelevant
User avatar #61 to #60 - xankon (08/16/2012) [-]
well at leats it´s there, and it´s a damn good point...
long time since i had a talk like this, thank you :)
User avatar #62 to #61 - mrgreatnames **User deleted account** (08/16/2012) [-]
Well, if you ever want to discuss something like this, hit me up :)

*but put it...

I can tell

I'll just take the deletions as a victory for now; cheers

Still, when he's talking about wiping out a disease, he's talking about planets as living beings that adapt to their environment and get rid of diseases (humans)
And that's not the case.
User avatar #32 to #28 - uppercasename (08/09/2012) [-]
how do you know... plants have cores, systems , water , grass and shit can be their hair ... water can be their blood, we wouldnt know beucase we dont know anything, you guys are assholes

Honestly you're all retarded for taking any of this seriously.

When you say "all" am I included in that?
User avatar #42 to #39 - sookmaybowls (08/09/2012) [-]
Considering you're participating in an argument on the internet over a meme, yes. Yes you are.

Meh.

"grass and shit can be their hair"

Are you high?
User avatar #34 to #33 - uppercasename (08/09/2012) [-]
i am, however i think this can be a valid thought
User avatar #38 to #34 - mrgreatnames **User deleted account** (08/09/2012) [-]
Maybe you should come back when your head has cleared.
User avatar #40 to #38 - uppercasename (08/09/2012) [-]
im OP, my head will never be clear
User avatar #41 to #40 - uppercasename (08/09/2012) [-]
but if you wont talk to me while high, ill wait until im sober... probly wont be any time soon since i hotboxed my closet(im not retarted, i have a walk in closet) and im in my closet beucase i dont wanna turn on my room light becuase i dont want my parents to see thatim awake
