Actually you have missed the point. I merely pointed out why your definition is as bogus as Moreless' claim of "live carbons". This is his made up term. Carbon is not living, even if it is a part of a living organism. Do we have live oxygen? Nitrogen? Selenium? Copper? Zinc? Sulfur? Hydrogen? Silicon? Sodium? Potassium? Strontium? Fluoride?..........
No, no, no, no, no, no.............
The REAL fact is that just because an atom is a component of a living system this does not make it living itself. And nobody has questioned the fact that carbon is a part of living organisms, so stop confusing what was really said with what you are trying to make it sound like was said.
