Viruses: Living or Non-Living

I think that viruses are living because even though they are much, much smaller than bacteria are they still can go into to organisms and cause sicknesses and they can move and reproduce. But, to reproduce and live they depend on other oraganisms wether its an animal, plant or even bacteria. They get into a closed membrane of a cell in a living organism The debate of wether a virus is living or non-living has been going on for a long time in science an right now the answer is somewhere in the gray space in between living and non-living.
