Ok, but you have to admit it though. Our Sun is alive right now. If it died we wouldn't be having this convo
is it bigger than a bread box? is it collective or singular is it metaphoric or literal is it corporeal, or non-corporeal
while i technically disagree with your definition, i suppose i can't really argue with it... these are mostly not yes or no questions, but i'll let that slide. yes singular literal corporeal
yes yes (well, not the specific one i'm thinking of, but man had begun making them by this point anyway)
did it exist in 1800? is it something you personally could construct given all the appropriate tools with your present knowledge?
