Another cloud free day in Scotland let me catch almost 9 hours of this huge and lively prom. Taken with my home made 90mm modded Coronado PST and DMK21 camera. Software: CdC, Eqmod, DSSR, AutoStakkert!, Wavesharp, DVS, Shotcut and Gimp.

Look at this and tell me life couldn't evolve on the Sun, that is a stable structure with reputation patterns, this alone is enough to make Conway's game of Life
Life as we know it could not "evolve" on the sun. And technically life has to be present first before it can evolve. Evolution isn't what created life. It's just how the living change over time.
Obviously plasma beings would be nothing like us at least physically (theoretically it could have similar systems like nervous systems)
And as for life having to exist first, ehh, terms get vague at that point, are the chemicals alive? No, but when they happen to be in a certain state they are, I prefer to think of it like Rocks evolve into a planet, not the same thing as biological evolution but it's the same word and since the chemicals are the predecessor to life then they did evolve from them in that manner just no genetics involved
Except you don't just get to conflate your personal definition of evolution with the scientific one. If you want to believe rocks "evolve" into a planet, that's fine. But if you start bringing that up without clarifying your definition of evolution and how it factually differs from the scientific one, people will think you're crazy.
Except chemicals do literally evolve into life which evolve into DNA, it is a fuzzy point because DNA didn't exist yet, but it is still natural selection and random chance that leads to the first life form, I am deliberately conflating biological evolution with the more main stream definition because at that point in time biology physics and chemistry were all physically conflated.
This is entirely incorrect. Abiogenesis is the mechanism that converts "chemicals" to life. The only thing you are deliberately doing is stating factually incorrect concepts about an intensely deep and developed area of study. The "more mainstream definition" is just wrong.
