Actually G, life exists here against the odds -it's a battle and from our first breathe we are destined to die because the oxygen which is necessary for all of our cells functions is the most poisonous thing for our bodies. Water is the unique thing on earth which allows life to exist.
That's why anti-oxidants are seen as such a great discovery but they only post-pone the inevitable...
So: we are born, we live and hopefully replicate to prolong the chain of life and then we die. End of story......unless you think the individual elements which our bodies return to somehow miraculously all end up in the same organism at the end of the food chain -a passing worm or such....
