The Game of Life - the Or Operation

The logical operation or can be implemented two glider guns and two eaters. We show that if either A and B have a 1 in the current location, then A or B will have a 1 in that location.

Here is the or configuration.

First, is A and B are 1, then A or B is 1.

Next, is A is 1 and B is 0, then A or B is 1.

Then, is A is 0 and B is 1, then A or B is 1.

Finally, is A is 0 and B is 0, then A or B is 0.
