We are the universes own entropy minimization function. And are the product of a local equilibrium.

I didn't say it wasn't useful. My comment is in terms of physics rather than biology or chemistry. i.e. in physics, there is little difference but complexity between a rock and a human.

Organic/non-organic distinction is arbitrary. Life is just complexity manifest.

I don't pay much attention to big bang things, as far as I'm concerned it's as unprovable as an infinite universe theory. I'm not sure we can ever know either way.

You are positive you were told that electrons are matter maybe. This is the standard (see: current) model, in QFT electrons are not particles, so are not leptons, so are not matter.
