Thank you Allie. Yes, I basically do think of our universe as, essentially, "an organism of an incomprehensible scale". As you'll see in my other posts, I feel there's a lot of evidence that our universe evolved - that it's descended from a long line of earlier, simpler universes. The best theory to explain how that might have happened is cosmological natural selection (first outlined by the physicist Lee Smolin in the 1990s). Bear in mind, evolution is the only mechanism we know of that can generate efficient, optimised complexity from a simple, non-optimised starting point, simply by iterating again and again. Why wouldn't that be the explanation for the efficient, optimised complexity we find at all scales in our universe? What other explanation can the mainstream offer? If so, the basic parameters of matter have been fine-tuned by that evolution to generate this complex universe, including DNA lifeforms like us. (Fundamental particles evolved; matter evolved; evolution evolved.) So yes, our universe develops like an organism, following an evolved path...
