Yep that seems to fit the picture. Eternal energy seems right if we compare it to anything the world knows...if your computer is not connected with a source of energy is fonctionnalities will cease or die. Same thing for life. but we know that death or inanimated objects or materials does not need energy or is du to an absence of energy.

Actually the real problem is if there is a source of energy that is infinite or finite like the sun...(meaning creation of energy, so there is different quantities of it)

or if there is always energy and it never dissipates( does'nt disapear or burn out, maybe just changes is form ( heat, cold, wind, electricity, vibrations etc etc) without modifying the quantity but maybe is intensity)

or there is both....sounds possible but not yet proved i guess

what do you guys think?
