Interesting observation Tormod; It also has intrinsic laws which metaphorically speaking could represent intelligence. And as you have already stated, it was born, it grows, and it dies. But could it also be reincarnated "metaphorically speaking" with a new big bang? Assuming that the sum of it's parts is greater than any single part, I have to believe that the universe is much more magnificent than we will ever understand.
