I'm sure a lot of us would've studied viruses at some point in our lives, maybe in highschool science classes etc. Well I decided to read it up again to refresh my memory.
According to Wikipedia:
"Viruses are considered by some to be a life form, because they carry genetic material, reproduce, and evolve through natural selection, although they lack key characteristics (such as cell structure) that are generally considered necessary to count as life. Because they possess some but not all such qualities, viruses have been described as "organisms at the edge of life""

Yep, now I remember them. They're those weird things that are not even "alive" but can somehow infect or attach themselves to other living things and suddenly become alive inside those other things. Wtf... Sounds like something out of an Aliens movie! If you read the Wikipedia page, they say that we're not even sure how they started to exist.
I mean, if you look at them and how they are so destructive to living organisms in general, and how they are just essentially RNA/DNA sequences, IE. chains of protein arranged in a certain specific way, I can't help but think, are these actually Weapons of Mass Destruction? They are almost like Mother Nature's own pre-programmed ICBMs, launched straight at us to cull us from this Earth because there are just too many of us!
