can any of you atheists explain scientifically how or why you are alive at this very moment? What is it that makes your brain be "on" and have the ability to think, see, breath and simply "be?"
Indeed, there is no scientific explanation for being alive....which is why evolutionary science is a sham to explain life.

Earth to idiot, Earth to idiot. Do you copy? Evolution does not explain the sustained chemical reactions that keep our brains "on", as you so eloquently put it. Evolution is only concerned with the change of allele frequencies over a period of time. You cannot use it to explain anything else, despite what Kent Hovind tells you. Get it now?
Over and out... dumbass.
Well, I can't use Evolutionary science to explain why we're alive, because it doesn't do that. Not directly, anyway.
However, we can use philosophy.
I think therefore, I am. However, since you've displayed no signs of thinking at all (in any of the posts you've made), you therefore do not exist. Ergo, you are not alive.
QED
Biological processes can explain the mechanisms that keep a biological being 'on' as you say it. Evolution explains how that biological entity came to be what it is in its present form.
By taking away life, you don't change a being. A dead man doesn't turn into a rabbit, nor does he evolve any further - but during his lifetime he has played a role in the evolutionary process of homo-sapiens.
How I am alive: Get our your textbooks from eighth-grade health and tenth-grade biology and look it up.
Why I am alive: You see, when mommies and daddies love each other very much, they express their love for each other in a very special way that only grown-ups can understand, and it eventually leads to a baby.
Sport, you and Carico should hook up. Sure, she's a little older than you, but then you two could just sit around agreeing with eachother instead of contaminating the rest of the world with your stupidity.
Well I'm alive because I am breathing, my electrical and chemical messages are working, and my cells are all producing ATP at a normal rate.
I know I'm alive because I can observe all of these things. While science does not fully understand consciousness, that isn't to say that we never can. Unknowns are simply exciting goals to strive for in science, while for you they are gaps to cram God into.
Though considering the opinion of you that people here have, I've just wasted my breath.
Fundies don't drink, have sex, smoke, explore boundaries, listen to Jewish/blasphemous comedy or EVEN think for themselves. You can YOU say you're alive?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
