haha!

Yeah, you know I also used to believe that people only use 10 percent of their brain capacity, too, but (and Fester, I think you're gonna love this one), that's actually incorrect:

Although it's true that at any given moment all of the brain's regions are not concurrently firing, brain researchers using imaging technology have shown that, like the body's muscles, most are continually active over a 24-hour period. "Evidence would show over a day you use 100 percent of the brain," says John Henley, a neurologist at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. Even in sleep, areas such as the frontal cortex, which controls things like higher level thinking and self-awareness, or the somatosensory areas, which help people sense their surroundings, are active, Henley explains.

But that's another post, I guess.  ;D

Deborah-Leigh:
 :D I like that one too! Haha.. .that puts that false premise to its place to line up more with Biblical perspectives. The carnal natural man, that old man, that wretched Oh man, will never reach the heights of spiritual comprehension that is spiritually discerned!


Thanks G! :D :)
