   Actually evolution depends on *exactly* two things: 1) imperfect copying   
   of information, and 2) differential probability of the copied information   
   being preserved.   
      
   If you study the conditions given above, you will notice that "life" isn't   
   one of them.  That is why cultures, languages, religions, fashion styles,   
   scientific theories, and other non-living systems also evolve.
