Find resource, claim resource, take resource by force, exploit resource, expand reach, repeat

This is the fundamental basis of nature as a whole. Anything outside of this is either a temporary exception or a misinterpretation of data.

I'd argue this has existed for about 3.8 billion years, not 400. 400 years for the English word, sure..

    So you felt the need to state that you disagree, attempt to degrade me, then offer no explanation?

    Many biologists also argue that viruses are living or not, there were decades of internal scientific debate on evolution before eventually being accepted, the big bang was debated against even with evidence, etc.

    You being a biologist with an opinion means less than nothing when you can find any number of equally or more educated individuals who offer alternative opinions
