No of course you can't. You would not be getting all the nutrients that the body needs.
You could maybe do it for a few days but I wouldn't recommend it.

Of course not, you need nutrients found in different healthy foods. You can drink tea, of course in some ways, it's healthy for you because it contains antioxidants! But remember, tea can act as a natural diuretic, so drink other beverages too, esp water (flavor it if need be!). I also enjoy tea, and love to drink it, so I know how you feel! Enjoy your tea, but don't let it be the only thing you enjoy - Stay healthy!!

You could for a while, but you would lose a lot of weight and eventually become so weak that you'd have to eat something.
I've often wondered the same thing actually.
Try a variety like green and camomile tea - that'd keep you going for a bit longer I think.

Tea sans sugar has no calories. However, I take my tea sans milk so I guess it really depends... if you put 5 or 6 spoons of sugar in it it may be possible... try it and find out!

Unfortunatly not..you would eventually starve to death. You could just have tea to drink instead of any other drinks because it does actually count towards your 8 glasses of water a day.

I guess you could, but you would have to be careful when you walk around on them. Sleeping on tea cups would be difficult also.

No. But on a side-note, I heard that tea was somehow more hydrating than water! So if you wanted you could replace all your water with tea. But then you'd be ever so slightly dosed on caffeine, permanently.

No... your body would shut down in no time. Be careful with herbal tea, too. You need to make sure you balance it with water because it can dehydrate you.
