Can you explain to my why it is not?

It is not that viruses are demons. It is that devils are spirits and some spirits can only interact with this world in the form of information. Information travels via acoustic/electromagnetic signal.
Those signals require vehicles for us to perceive them. Read that line carefully.
Viruses are zombies. They are dead, yet they reproduce from the living. A devil has no foothold where there is salvation. Though an army attacks and there are wounded, the battle may still be won. This is faith.
There are those who perform their research and derive their conclusions based strictly upon physical manifestation. This is a good thing.
But there are those who perform their research and derive conclusions AND intent AND meaning. There is a poster in this thread that I admire. That is the one who resigned from this thread.
For the scientist to discard intent and meaning from the equation is proof the scientist is not. Discover empirically and without bias the physical reality, but do not forego afterwards to discern the point of the reality.
Further, for those who say that matter is not energy condensed, don't reveal your ignorance so easily. You use your eyes, but neglect your minds. You assume the Big Bang and its extreme flaws. How can an infinitely dense object exist as a point within an infinite expanse? This is an obvious lie to anyone possessing reason. Anything infinitely dense must therefore possess the whole space, and yet, if the space is infinite, it cannot at the same time. This is an anomaly. Einstein was correct in desiring a finite space-time because that is what is true. His fault was in believing flawed mathematics instead of reality. The logical conclusion is that space-time is a finite object within an indiscernible matrix. Consider a fabric which is infinite and yet is somehow bent by matter. That is obviously false. A fabric that is infinite would not bend because it has no pressure points.
This all to reveal a little. A part of me hopes that you get it now, but somehow I realize I need to break it down further lest anyone manipulates their self with poor vision.
Spirit is energy. Most accurately, it is potential energy. Potential energy possesses intent. Intent becomes kinetic. Kinetic moves matter. We observe matter and its patterns. We define matter by its patterns, but that is false. That is like defining a car by its mileage alone without considering the driver. One old Honda may be utterly destroyed at 150,000 miles, and another go on to 400,000 miles.
Unfortunately for us, we still judge the driver by the vehicle. Therefore, we explain away our results and create niches of science which are literally pseudo-science, while that which reveals reality is called by the same name.
Tesla didn't get everything right, by any means. He was a champ, in a way, though. But he did mention something worth noting, despite his misunderstanding. I don't remember his statement very well, but to me, I interpret it: "Those who are attached to merely their own limited understanding of the physical reality will never understand reality."
Looking it up, it reads like this: “The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena, it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence.”
But we know that the People will continue to follow bias.

Great. Here's your homework assignment.
Get a calculator, look up the average mass of a bacteriophage, and see how many joules of energy are involved in that when it's converted to energy. Then how many lumen-seconds that is in UV.
See if it looks to you as if that much light in the UV would be hard to miss. If it would be subtle. Or is it an amount that would be unmistakable?
We'll leave off the other bits like how it ends up only in the UV, or how the teleporting virus manages to squirt all the energy in one direction, or how it reconstitutes itself in the original structure from the energy, which are all also show stoppers. But I'm pretty sure just 'how much light IS that' will leave you with no self delusions.

I asked for you to explain to me why mass is not condensed energy. I understand you are extrapolating that to the virus example, but let's take it one step at a time. You, and a few others (who I think were piggy-backing off your statement, because they didn't explain why either), said I was mistaken when I said mass is condensed energy, can you explain to me why this is not true?
Can you explain to my why it is not?
Although I would like to correct "matter" to specifically mean "mass".
Or are you just hurling insults without actually participating in conversation here?

There IS no such thing as "condensed energy"
As I said before, I can have a dollar. That has a penny equivalence of 100. It has a nickel equivalence of 20. If I cut the dollar up and shake it, pennies and nickels won't fall out. They're not in there. A dollar isn't pennies.
There's many another issue - photons can't carry charge, yet matter can be charged, on and on. The reason there are so many issues with the "condensed energy" thing is that it's not true.
What E=mc^2 tells you is, if I convert mass to energy, how much energy do I get for how much mass? Or conversely, how much energy would it take to instantiate that much mass? What it ISN'T saying is that mass IS energy, just that they're exchangeable.

Therefore, it is the landscape which determines which vessel is necessary for the driver...
It sounds so obvious putting it that way.

So you're saying my hypothetical bank account of 5 dollars does not have 500 pennies?
So where is the energy-mass equivalence truth coming from? The fact that multiple (countless) experimental investigations have demonstrated time and time again that E = mc^2... are they mistaken when they record that energy is laying dormant in mass?
so E = mc2 is not saying that mass is energy? Ask any child on the street for a definition of the = (equal) sign. is 1 + 1 = 2 not saying that 1 and another 1 added together is 2? Let's not complicate things any more than we have to.

A misunderstanding of what that equation's telling you.
This guy's a lot more eloquent about it than I am...I tend to interchange "mass" and "matter" in writing because I'm sloppy. You want more rigor, here you go.
Matter and Energy really aren’t in the same class and shouldn’t be paired in one’s mind.
I think what you mean is, don't bring up any reasons why my speculation is incorrect. Have you calculated the amount of light that virus would turn into on its magical way from one petri dish to another yet? Or is the algebra a bit much for you?
Almighty teacher, teach me the ways of chauvinism!
I feedest on thou wisdom.
Alas, good sir, thou feedest me crow, and withal I grow fond of its taste.

Abrasive. It was not the whole virus though, all that is required is its DNA. Luc Montagnier found that it was the DNA of viruses that was being transmitted electromagnetically:

IMHO, Montagnier has lost it. But the challenge remains - how much light do you get if you transform an average bacteriophage's DNA (or RNA) into UV? Is it the sort of thing you'd have trouble instrumenting in a standard way?
eta: no, old Luc is claiming that DNA emits low frequency RF, which is what I remember him having written about. Nowhere in this paper does he state that DNA is being transmitted physically by EM signals. Because that's not going to work. If you disagree, point out the part you think states this.

"It was shown clearly that the water nanostructures and their electromagnetic resonance can faithfully perpetuate DNA information"
The mechanism does not involve mass-to-EM equivalence, otherwise Montagnier would have noticed this, like you said.
One day science and spirituality will unite, it is just a matter of matching the terminology in both fields.

Nice thread.... but what really got me was that closing statement. The reason it got to me was because i have come to this conclusion about 7 months ago, and since then i have been going on about it repeatedly to people in my daily life.
The terminology is the key. Without it, we are no better than apes.

Righty-right! It CAN'T be that viruses et al are physically beaming themselves. There are lots and lots of problems with this that take it right out of play, unless there's some really tricky physics going on that I'm quite sure a virus can't manage on its own.
