Could be that rocks simply have such slow metabolisms that we are unaware of their consciousness. And, since all of them except carbon are not carbon-based, we don't care.agree. For the same reason that a rock is conscious but not conscious of being conscious …
For some reason, your post reminds me of a NASA post on FB that I saw today, where in the comments people began seriously discussing whether a single tiny carbon-based life form with a span of maybe 80-85 years or so, living on one tiny planet, is insignificant on the scale of the universe. REALLY? You have to debate this? I scrolled and scrolled... and laughed and laughed... (click the picture to get comments)
