I have been giving the evidence from the very beginning of this post. I showed that dead organisms have all the components required for life yet have no life, its like a car with all its parts but refusing to move.
You yourself have admitted that dead things after a certain amount of time do not have all the components for life. Or else, it would be possible for us to revive people who've been dead 2 or even 3 days. You have said this is impossible. This has nothing to do with the "spirit" and everything to do with the fact that dead things don't have the same components as living things.
Abiogenesis claims all we need are parts to be alive, but death defies this claim, as I have shown many times already.
No you haven't. In fact, you have admitted just that. When there is death, decay ensues, and that makes it impossible to revive people. This may not be extensive enough in the first minutes after death, but try it after 3 hours, see if you can revive anyone then.
From this I concluded that parts are not all that is required for life, and I proposed that perhaps a spirit is also needed for life.
You have concluded wrongly, as nothing you have said points to this. It in fact points to the opposite.

Yes I did but before that time arrives they still have all the parts intact.
So, what you're saying is that it is indeed due to the parts not being intact that causes a person not to be revivable, and not the spirit.
Yet the organism is dead showing that even with all the essential parts for life intact an organism can be lifeless thus abiogenesis confronts a problem.
Uhm no. There is something wrong with the body, else it wouldn't be dead. The fact that we can repair a bit within a few minutes of death occuring does not prove a spirit.
I think my conclusion is rational and follows from the evidence.
But it doesn't. For you to be able to draw this conclusion, you'd have to have evidence that it is due to the (as of yet unevidenced) spirit that a body is revived, and not due to the doctors replacing a function that stopped/broke.

No, dead organisms have intact parts yet are dead, lifeless.
They are dead precisely because something isn't working properly anymore.
My argument is abiogenesis talks about life being solely reliant on parts but dead organisms still have the components required for life yet are not alive.
Because they don't have all the parts needed to be alive, for example, a working brain.
Like suffocated human being or other causes of death where theres no physical injury to the organism every part is intact in the right place yet no life is present.
Yes, because the brain stopped functioning. the fact we can kick start it back up recently soon after it has stopped is not eviidence for s spirit.
Here's a link to possible proof for the spirit.
You know we don't discuss links here. It doesn't contain any evidence anyway. Further it is about the soul, not the spirit. And it says dogs don't have a soul. If you say this is about the spirit, then dogs don't have one, and you said they did.

I already explained this in one of my previous posts, human beings can survive even with a dead brain and that's what we see in victims of brain death.
A human with a non functioning brain is alive? Evidence please. The fact we can restart it a few minutes after death does not mean there's a spirit there.

No. What I'm saying is despite the presence of all the necessary parts for life dead organisms like human beings remain dead, despite all the components being there that are needed for life.
And for the second (or third) time, they don't. They lack a functioning brain, for example.

From the very first line of the article:
Wiki writes:
Brain death is a legal definition of death that refers to the irreversible end of all brain activity
So no a person with a non functioning brain, is not alive.

As for the computer itself it has human makers and it utilises power, you can have a computer but without a source of power its but a collection of non functioning hardware.
In life, this power is provided by something called metabolism. You might have heard of it, and it consists of chemical reactions only.

You do realize that bacteria die fairly easily, and are not immortal? Right?
Yes, he does. He wasn't talking about a force from outside acting upon the bacteria that makes it die, as can be seen from his sentence:
Nosyned writes:
For the first 3 billion years organisms didn't die unless they were killed.
What he meant was that when no such force is exerted, how do we determine when a bacteria "dies".
