Jesus H. Fucking Christ.
You STILL have not quoted the relevant part of the article you claimed said bacteria can exist in two different places.
Yeah -- that one. Either you are the most dishonest troll ever, or your memory is shot. Are you on drugs ?
Are none of you able to read an article yourself? I've posted the link now three times. The quantum world is a weird one. In theory and to some extent in practice its tenets demand that a particle can appear to be in two places at once—a paradoxical phenomenon known as superposition—and that two particles can become “entangled,” sharing information across arbitrarily large distances through some still-unknown mechanism.
Perhaps the most famous example of quantum weirdness is Schrödinger’s cat, a thought experiment devised by Erwin Schrödinger in 1935. The Austrian physicist imagined how a cat placed in a box with a potentially lethal radioactive substance could, per the odd laws of quantum mechanics, exist in a superposition of being both dead and alive—at least until the box is opened and its contents observed.
As far-out as that seems, the concept has been experimentally validated countless times on quantum scales. Scaled up to our seemingly simpler and certainly more intuitive macroscopic world, however, things change. No one has ever witnessed a star, a planet or a cat in superposition or a state of quantum entanglement. But ever since quantum theory’s initial formulation in the early 20th century, scientists have wondered where exactly the microscopic and macroscopic worlds cross over. Just how big can the quantum realm be, and could it ever be big enough for its weirdest aspects to intimately, clearly influence living things? Across the past two decades the emergent field of quantum biology has sought answers for such questions, proposing and performing experiments on living organisms that could probe the limits of quantum theory.
Those experiments have already yielded tantalizing but inconclusive results. Earlier this year, for example, researchers showed the process of photosynthesis—whereby organisms make food using light—may involve some quantum effects. How birds navigate or how we smell also suggest quantum effects may take place in unusual ways within living things. But these only dip a toe into the quantum world. So far, no one has ever managed to coax an entire living organism—not even a single-celled bacterium—into displaying quantum effects such as entanglement or superposition.
.................According to study co-author Tristan Farrow, also of Oxford, this is the first time such an effect has been glimpsed in a living organism. “It certainly is key to demonstrating that we are some way toward the idea of a ‘Schrödinger’s bacterium,’ if you will,” he says. And it hints at another potential instance of naturally emerging quantum biology: Green sulfur bacteria reside in the deep ocean where the scarcity of life-giving light might even spur quantum-mechanical evolutionary adaptations to boost photosynthesis.

Is it really that important to you to avoid the actual facts? We do not just eat animals. and we don't even need to eat animals and herbivores eat no meat at all. And there is no way we would just magically have a sex drive either or even the ability to procreate without higher intelligence being involved in creation. And the complex code of DNA did not just mysteriously create itself out of nothing. Who do u think you're kidding? Only yourself.
Ev, plants are also alive - and you even think that they're somehow conscious..or is that only the paramecium? Life is consuming life on this rock. It's a massive orgy of death. Most of everything alive will be eaten alive (and plenty of what's eaten alive will be eaten alive asshole first). There is no need for a cosmic caterer. Do you understand?
I don't think that we "magically" have a sex drive, either. I don't think that dna created itself, nor do I think that it was constructed out of nothing.
I do think...however, that you're a complete moron. I'm ready for you to change my mind about that at your earliest convenience.
No one thinks plants are conscious. Paramecium have a sex life. Dude, let it go. You lost the food argument.
