Amazing Mind Amazing Body

"What fools indeed we morals are
To lavish care upon a Car,
With ne'er a bit of time to see
About our own machinery!"
~John Kendrick Bangs

"The best and most efficient pharmacy is within your own system."
~Robert C. Peale

"Take care of your body. It's the only place you have to live."
~Jim Rohn

"The human body is a machine which winds its own springs."
~Julien Offroy

"There is more wisdom in your body than in your deepest philosophy."
~Friedrich Nietzsche

"The brain is like a muscle. When it is in use we feel very good. Understanding is joyous."
~Carl Sagan

"We are the product of 4.5 billion years of fortuitous, slow biological evolution. There is no reason to think that the evolutionary process has stopped. Man is a transitional animal. He is not the climax of creation."
~Carl Sagan

"Evolution is not a force but a process. Not a cause but a law."
~John Morley

"If we are going to teach creation science as an alternative to evolution, then we should also teach the stork theory as an alternative to biological reproduction."
~Judith Hayes

"Today, the theory of evolution is an accepted fact for everyone but a fundamentalist minority, whose objections are based not on reasoning but on doctrinaire adherence to religious principles"
~James D. Watson

"You ever noticed how people who believe in Creationism look really unevolved? You ever noticed that? Eyes real close together, eyebrow ridges, big furry hands and feet. "I believe God created me in one day" Yeah, looks like He rushed it."
~Bill Hicks

"The evolution of the brain not only overshot the needs of prehistoric man, it is the only example of evolution providing a species with an organ which it does not know how to use"
~Authur Koestler

"After sleeping through a hundred million centuries we have finally opened our eyes on a sumptuous planet, sparkling with color, bountiful with life. Within decades we must close our eyes again. Isn't it a noble, an enlightened way of spending our brief time in the sun, to work at understanding the universe and how we have come to wake up in it? This is how I answer when I am asked—as I am surprisingly often—why I bother to get up in the mornings."
~Richard Dawkins

"The further the spiritual evolution of mankind advances, the more certain it seems to me that the path to genuine religiosity does not lie through the fear of life, and the fear of death, and blind faith, but through striving after rational knowledge."
~Albert Einstein

I am a jedi who believes in God. Who believes me?

@indartims In the beginning of the video, was that your question? Why do human embryos have tails? thats is because it contains the lower part of the spine. A better question would be based on the similarities of the development of human embryos vs. other embryos such as that of a pig or rabbit. Is this due to all organisms having common ancestors or due to God or gods, which ever you prefer, using this system because of its 'efficiency'. I quote efficiency because that can be debated.

Just do not listen to all that is shoved at you. You'll be safe when you take charge of your own thoughts. Be your own leader.

Amazing stuff like this just says "wow, this is so amazing God must and is real."

[whatugundo]

@iconoclastic23 .. i disagree with that ... so a first time heroin user wont have any receptors there ? so how does he/she get there buzz ?? hmmmm intresting

[iconoclastic23]

@whatugundo Heroin would have absolutely no effect on your brain unless there were already receptors there for the heroin molecules to bind with. The relevant receptors in this case are called mu Opioid receptors.

[Lauren5684]

Amazing!I had no idea that a person's eyes always stays the same size!

[Rodztar13]

I like your quotes :D

[Spetsop]

"We have a whole pharmacy within us. We can create any drug inside us"... that sounds a little too far fetched. If that was true, pharma industries wouldn't exist... a drug, by definition, is a chemical that cannot be created by the body.

Hm, "capable of reversing the aging process"... impossible, most cells have a limited number of divisons, and once that is maxed out, there is no way that cell will live forever (and that's simple stuff still :P)

Some interesting facts though :)
