hmmm I honestly don't like this topic at all. The molecules of life are much different than the molecules of non living material. Could you imagine teaching to a bunch of high schoolers that theres no difference between them and a rock? You could destroy someone's values right there.

So you feel there is a difference in sort of what their made up of or whatever...but you feel that humans and rocks basicially have the same status in the universe

"By the way, don't even try to move the goal post by starting to argue that we're special because we have a consciousness and all of that."
do you feel that a bacterium is not conscious?
