Stars

[sushi]

Shouldnt stars considered to be alive

they are anti entropy and converting fuels into energy

there are also stages in a star's lifespan from birth to a nebula to becoming a black hole, white dwarf

Life (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)

based on my non-existent knowledge of entropy and thermodynamics i would say stars actually increase entropy because they disperse energy by emitting light

 

[ZenRaiden]

I actually still struggle with concepts of entropy. Either its a dumb concept to begin with, or I don't get it at all?

That said stars are source of life.
Were it not for stars, the periodic table of elements would not exist.

Entropy?

Mom once said, "You are made of a couple of dollars worth of elements and minerals".

Appreciate nature, life, the gifts god gives you, especially what you are made of. You are made of a couple of dollars worth of elements and minerals. Appreciate clean air, clean water, sunlight, starlight! Changing seasons, weather, growing things, the smell of the earth, water, flowers and most of all, your food! Appreciate the taste of your food. Make it simple, but meditate on the taste and smell of your food. That makes god more satisfied than a blessing. With every bite, you bless the food silently. Thank the maker for the gift and for what it will do for your body.

they are still not planets, which could theortically live forever. Maybe planet's core will exhaust itself?
