So at what level then, does life become not-life?
At the cellular level? At the molecular level?
How about atomic?

They all have wings.
The word 'mammal' is a classification that came thousands of years LATER.
Irrelevant, since the bible quite clearly says birds or fowl, not "winged creatures".
Clear evidence though that the bible was written by fallible men with no god to influence them.
Just an agenda to advance.
The original Hebrew is flying creature, if I recall correctly. Of course, your statement of fallible men is the main point. Even jews, who have more at stake in a clear rendering need talmudic scholarly input(guesses) to follow along. Christians with their spin on things are even further removed from the source.
