Why not call machines a very poorly constructed organism instead of calling living organism a machine that can replicate itself?
Life wants to preserve itself, how it can be explained by the reductionism, by reducing the life's characteristics to the fundamental particles and forces found in physics?
Yes, if there were no physics, there wouldn't have been life but once there is life, it can't be accounted for by physics solely.
In every Organism lies a mechanism but once the organism emerges it's no more drived by only a mechenism.
The fundamental particles, fields and forces may not have any teleology in them but their organization yield something altogether new: life, which has a purpose built-in it.
