A great deal of our gene pool is shared with horses, dogs and badgers. The idea we are somehow better makes us look really stupid. The Brumars and Blashers of the world are only concerned with laying claim to blame others in order to elevate themselves from their status as spiritual midgets. At the end of the day we can only be grateful neither one has the courage of their convictions and being couch Christians we know they will never act out what they really want to do. They sure would like the govm't to do it for them though. A Godly govm't like they have in those idiotic Islamic countries where clerics can order the necks stretched of anyone that disagrees with their interpretation of any remote or semi-retarded passage of their rule book. Their cries for earthly and eternal punishment have nothing to do with anything the Christ of the bible taught or represented.

When a human being dies , a galaxy dies. Our mind is a Galaxy and so is the mind of the next human! Evolved as equals. You may be a Sunni, he a Shiite both are epitome of mankind's evolution. You may be a Brahmin and he may be a Dalit or an... untouchable but you are all equal. Our neocortex has the same number of neurons as a galaxy has stars: 100 billion. Don't ever dumb yourself down, you are so unique. You can be the greatest mind or the smallest thinker based in the heart of global research in Silicon Valley or in the backyard of forgotten lands in North Waziristan. World Wide Web provides you this unique opportunity to be a part of world sans frontiers. Please don't contaminate this great vision of future with the backwardness of useless knowledge, learn the knowledge of today, think of tomorrow not yesterday, think of sanctity of humanity and kindness towards every being. Think rationally, think globally, think inclusively. Human super-brain is a consequence of a rare ability to share complex thoughts among individual brains. In an article today in Daily Galaxy our neurologic Internet of sorts is highlighted that gave birth to emergence 75,000 years. World Wide Web of today brings together a collection of global brain, these social sites are our emerging Humanity neocortex. The fate of future civilization depends on the decision we make here at 'the seat of our humanity.' Carl Sagan describes 'The neocortex,' comprises more than two-thirds of our brain mass, the dominion of perception and essential analysis, "It is the distinction of our species," where "matter is transformed into consciousness." It makes possible our judgments, our knowledge of good and evil and our sense of self, where we have our ideas and inspirations, where we read and write, where we compose music or do mathematics. it is "the seat of our humanity. Civilization is the product of the cerebral cortex." Hawkings says that if the human race manages to redesign itself, to reduce or eliminate the risk of self-destruction, we will probably reach out to the stars and colonize other planets. We are through a phase that Hawking calls self designed evolution." We are on the cusp of a new mankind that will discover how to modify both intelligence, and instincts like aggression.
