20. So it is y/ours to say what life is and what it is not, when we didn't create it in the first place?

Aren't you assuming that the letters l, i, f, and e are the same thing as that to which they refer? That whatever definition you hang on that arbitrary combination of sounds, that definition is equal to and no more, nor less, than the sum and total of some very complex phenomenon in this world AND that not only can you/we create that absolute definition and its arbitrary label, we can also apply it to an entire cosmos that scientists pretty much agree may have up to 11 dimensions.

How's it feel to be God?
