Using the same flawed reasoning from which you claim "The Sun is alive", the following arguments can also be made:
If thought is based in electricity, then anything with electrical charge(s) is able to think. Thus all atoms are able to think, and everything is thinking.
If life is possible because of matter, and matter can neither be created nor destroyed; then nothing is able to die. Thus there is no such thing as "death" and nothing can die.
If emotions are caused by chemicals, then anything with chemicals has emotions. Thus all elements and chemical substances have emotions, and everything is emotional.
If sight is a result of reflection/refraction of electromagnetic radiation, then all forms of electromagnetic radiation have sight. Thus all electromagnetic radiation is able to see, and anything with electric/magnetic fields that functions in a wavelike manner is able to see.
^^All consist of the same reasoning, "If X is a result of a process/processes involving Y, then all Y are able to X.".
