Whats your opinion about the Gaia hypothesis?

Asked by oratio (8940points) April 2nd, 2009

Earth, the only living planet we know of, with its complexity of systems that balance and support each other. Do you believe that the planet itself can be considered an organism? That the biota in its competition of consuming each other are co-operating to make the planet stable and suited for life? Are our functions on the planet similar to the micro-organisms that live on and in our bodies?
