At birth the human brain weighs, on average, fourteen ounces. It usually reaches its maximum size at age fifteen (proving the size of the brain has nothing to do with intelligence level). At its maximum size, the brain weighs an average of forty-six ounces, slightly less than three pounds. In liquid measurement, that\u2019s about a Big Gulp from the soda machine at the local gas station.<\/p>\n
There is no way for medical professionals to prove this, but the old theory was that we use only about 10 percent of our brain capacity. If that were true and we start out with only a Big Gulp in the first place, we\u2019re down to about a quarter-pounder with cheese by the time we\u2019re done. And we think that with our quarter-pounder with cheese, we\u2019re going to comprehend the infinite, decipher the mysteries of the millennia, and answer all the questions? Right!<\/p>\n
Isn\u2019t it logically impossible that we as finite creatures could ever fully understand the infinite?<\/p>\n
