I simply stated that "energy cannot be created or destroyed" which you clearly did not agree with, since you stated that it could be destroyed...
Transformation does not equate to destruction.
In a nuclear bomb, a small bit of mass is converted into energy. In nuclear reactions, it is common for energy to be converted into mass.
You were claiming that life is a form of energy and hence would have to be conserved. But, if it is *transformed* into, say, heat, or chemical energy, that is quite enough to satisfy the conservation of energy. So the conservation of energy has *nothing* to do with whether life comes from life.
Furthermore, because of the aspects of general relativity (see above), it isn't possible, often, to even define a 'total energy'. This is one of the reasons it is possible to get a 'universe from nothing'.

Nope. Even if energy has always existed, that doesn't mean *life* has always existed. First, since life isn't a form of energy. Second, because there is no guarantee energy will stay the same *type* of energy. Life converting into heat, or electrical energy would be just as good.
Also, light sn't a supernatural entity. It is an electromagnetic wave. So, unless you are lcaiming your deity is an electromagnetic wave, your deity cannot be light.
Finally, light isn't, itself, a form of energy. It *has* energy, just like mass does. But it is not, itself energy. It has other properties than just its energy, like its momentum and angular momentum.
In other words, you have terribly confused God, light, energy, and life. None of the four is equal to any of the others.
Look, I'm telling you exactly what the Bible states, life = energy.
Quote:In him was life; and the life was the light of men - John 1:4
If life can exist after death of the body then is has to be some form of energy, you cannot say that life cannot exist after death because you don't know; but if life is energy then according to science it continues to exist...
Like I've said, it's funny how science seems to corroborate what the bible has been saying all along.
