Bill, I know you believe in life. Everybody does...or else they kill themselves. As far as I'm concerned, life is God.

So let me ask you then...what is life? You tell me what you think it is. I think it's conscious being, being consciously aware that "I am" or that "you are". That's life. Without such conscious being there is no awareness whatsoever. Without any awareness there is no life.

That's my opinion. I don't give a frog's patootie if that's not good enough for you or if it fails to meet your stringent standards of "substantiation". I give less than a frog's patootie about that as a matter of fact.
