Bryan asked: What is a perfect human being?
None so far. Nature endowed us with a flexible brain that tilts either
to the side of emotionalism or rationality. The five senses receiving
stimuli from outside the box/consciousness/mind as the sixth sense is
not yet a perfect machine. This mind/consciousness has no direct access
from outside but the other five senses do. Stimuli coming from outside
the box/brain pass thru several neurons before reaching the neocortex,
the region of the brain center for memory and language. This center of
the brain for memory and language interpretes the message received and
sends it back to specialized neurons called the sympathetic nervous
system.
A brain that tilts more towards emotionalism rather than rationality
was found to have a large amygdala{ the center of feelings} among the
female gender according to one study done during the decade of the
brain. Is this due to their upbringing or other genetic inheritance or
both?
