going to let you in on a
little secret — the brain that God gave you is the most awesome
mechanism in the known universe.
For one,
it's been estimated that the average brain
has within it the ability to produce between 100,000 and 1,000,000
different chemicals, each capable of reacting by itself, or in
combination with others, for the accomplishment of some purpose.
Second, within its three pounds,
give or take a few ounces, are about ten billion individual nerve
cells or neurons. That's about two and a half times as many cells as
there are people on this planet. Implanted within those cells are
more than one thousand billion billion molecules — that's a ten
followed by twenty zeros.
Now that's already impressive, but
here's the one that is, if you’ll forgive the pun, mind-blowing.
Because each neuron
can interact with other neurons in not just one but in
many ways, it's been estimated that the number of possible interconnections
among your brain’s neurons may be as many as ten with eight hundred
zeros following it. That's about nine times the total number of subatomic particles in the entire
universe.
Indeed, for a
computer to contain as many "bits" as your brain, it would
have to be somewhere between a quarter and a third of a mile high
and as large as the state of Texas.
And your brain is the miracle
it is regardless of the color
of your skin, the religion you profess, your gender, or the
background from which you came. And don't ever let anyone tell you
otherwise.
So I
say nobody, but NOBODY, is better equipped than you to
think something through to a sound conclusion. It's a matter of
desire and practice. Not one of sufficiency of equipment.
Think about it.
