Animate and Inanimate:
"Mortal physical human bodies have the function of providing a regenerative succession of fresh physical vehicles for the mortal-- because entropic-- articulation of metaphysical immortality. The long-held popular conception of the existence of two kinds of physical substances-- one called animate and the other called inanimate-- the first rather mystically maintained and the other subject to stark chemical analysis, was altogether invalidated as science closed in on the assumed threshold between the animate and inanimate at the virus level only to find that there is no threshold and that all the phenomena followed strictly inanimate physical laws. So we find the real separation of the life and the inanimate when humans die and no weight is lost. Life is metaphysical and antientropic. ‘The inanimate is physical and entropic.’
