If we use less than 10% of our brain, what do you think the other 90% could be used for?
Mind Reading, telepathy, the ability to move objects by thought????
What do you think?

The idea that we only use 10% of our brains in a myth popularised by the media. The full report can be read here

The Brain Is Very Powerful, But Maybe Those Genes Will Remain Dormant Untill Evoultion Or Something Helps To Reactivate Those Parts....Who Knows Our Brains May Grow Even More, So I Like Them How They Are
By The Way If They Were Able To Use The Full Capacity, Maybe Emotions, Thought, Imaganation Will No Longer be Inportant,....And Control And Domance May Overpower The Other Chains Of Peptides

If you get even close to 10% of the computing power of your brain you would be about 100 times smarter than most people reading this.

Most people I know don't seem to use that much! Is that in total or just for concious thought. I think there alot of people who can do other things like telepathy and telekinesis but they just don't know how.

Great question!
- I read an article about how the rest of our brain that we don't use is actually controlling (among other things) our subconcsious for example our body language - why we sit a certain way, or cross our arms during conversation etc.
-Thus in 10000s of year as humans (evolve) and with it their brans evolve, life will become alot more complicated for them.
I think alot of the evidence and scientific experiment to show our brain usage is very limited i.e. only the 10% is v well founded and supported. I certainly believe it.

A lot of that 90% is used just keeping our bodies running correctly

Thats a fallacy made by non scientists.
Has anyone done it yet? No. A little bit? No. A tiny teeny bit? No.
Then its not gonna happen. Hell the planet will be fucked before that.

Why do you think you use less than 10%?
This idea is sometimes attributed to Einstein - not one of his better ideas!
I'm pretty sure I use most of mine for one thing or another.

Yes, there are many other things that other things can do and we can't, cats are known to use 25% more brain than we do, maybe this is how they read our minds and communicate...
