3. Is it not life?

Edited on Fri Aug-21-09 12:13 AM by deep1

Is it not?????????

In biology, the science that studies living organisms, "life" is the condition which distinguishes active organisms from inorganic matter, including the capacity for growth, functional activity and the continual change preceding death.<3><4>

<4>"Merriam-Webster Dictionary". http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/life. Retrieved 06-21-2009.

What's the problem? A simple term, let's put religion aside and see the definition given for what it is.
