RK, I'm sorry to disappoint you but the last bit actually does argue that fire is a life form LOL.

Read this bit very carefully:

Now, let's ask whether we can extend this table a bit. Is there a lower form of life, below the subcellular, below the organelles like ribosomes that make up cells? Ribosomes are large molecules that make proteins. This is a chemical process...just as fire is a chemical process, oxidation. So, perhaps we can put chemical and physical processes, which are involved in the definition of metabolism, to the right of organelles:

Organisms Organ Systems Organs Tissues Cells Subcellular: Organelles Metabolism: Chemical and Physical Processes
Ex: Human being, Dog Ex: Digestive System, Respiratory System Ex: Intestines, Lungs, Heart Ex: Epithelial tissue in intestines Ex: Epithelial cells Ex: Mitochondria, Ribosomes Ex: Oxidation ( FIRE), manufacture of proteins, copying of DNA

This is not to say that I agree or disagree with the above statement. Just pointing out the PARADOX in the above descriptions of what life is, from the link provided by YOU
