After watching the movie "The Terminator" from 1984 I got some thoughts.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088247/
In this movie an unstoppable killing machine is finally being brought down by an injured, pregnant woman. What I think this movie wanted to represent is the victory of organism over mechanism and of life over death.
So what led biologists to reject vitalism and adopt mechanistic approaches toward life?
