Quote by: Jack  We also have moral laws concerning desecration or abuse of a corpse, something I suspect we'd all agree is not alive. |
Except that this moral consideration is aimed towards the famliy members who value it more than the piece of meat it really is, rather than the dead body being morally considered in itself. There is no reason to consider, lets say, consuming the dead body of a human that died unintentionally to be a moral wrong.

I don't see the OP asking about the morals considerations. It simply asks how we define life.

Makes for a lax dicussion imo.
