what defines life [+ favourites]

go ahead, what defines it.

My two cents... nothing defines life because it doesn't exist

life is a sensory experience. anyting that trancends that is not life and must be ascribed novel terminology.

I think it is like one huge joke and everyone is in on it and you suck.

If life doesn't exist then whom is raising the question?

the identity factor has been created by sencient beings, so you see it as me posing the question... when in fact there is no question

Life can be as big and important as you make it out to be. Or it can be as small and insignificant as you perceptions define it. I disagree with those people who sit out there saying, it’s all destiny. May be it is destiny after all, still it does not give us the leisure to sit and do nothing.

Life is chance of existence... you are correct in saying that there is no real line between the living on the non living in the sense that all things are one. However, in a romantic light it is the greater movement of energy, greater than that of fire or any other natural byproduct of existence. We are the formation of energy trying to express itself in this eternal equation.

Life is ridiculous. It is meaningful yet meaningless at the same time. It is purposeless yet purposefull. Life has no purpose, because it is not a journey, there is no aim, only the present moment exists and in this moment will you find out what life is, and discover a world beyond life, beyond explantion.

Life used to have meaning to me when I was young, it doesn't so much now. Maybe that's what happens when you get older, you are slowly being prepared for death, I don't know.

nothing can define life except death in its purity

life is the absence of death
so therefor there is no life
cells die everyday

Life in the temporal world is defined by the beginning, middle and end. Life in its purest sense means eternal change, eternal opporunity, etc. aka processes.

Lastresort, how can you just say life isn't real? At least put in a little explanation into your theory. Now, tell me this. If life isn't real, does that mean you could go up to a cop right now, spit in his eye, and not get tazed and beaten with a baton for an hour and a half? If life wasn't real, this "illusion", or whatever you wanna call it, would be much more chaotic.
