There exists a correlation between the
structure of a small-scale human society, and the structure of a living cellular organism. If you compare the diagramatic illustrations of these
two objects with each other, the similarities are surprisingly obvious:
Single-cell
organism Primitive Tribal Village
The same basic functions are performed
by the correlating structures:
Nucleus/Chief:
This is the 'brain' of the organism. The 10%
which governs the remaining 90%. This intelligence directs the actions
of the organism.
Protective
membrane/Village Walls:
This is the protective structure which the
Nucleus/Chief offers to the smaller entities which live and prosper inside the
Cell/Village.
Mitochondria etc./Tents and huts etc.
Inside these various structures, a wide variety of functions are performed which is necessary to keep the entire cell alive and provide for its basic needs.
Cytoplasm/Village Centre
Inside this area, the various structures move about, operate and procreate.
I concede that my illustrations may be overtly simplified, but you get the idea.
Although the implications of this discovery
may be profound, it does not have many practical applications. In the infinite
ocean of space-time, we are a tiny speck of dust swirling around along its
currents, carrying on it the universe's very first signs of life. How it
happened, nobody knows.
