IMPORTANT NOTE
This article is not an official FIGU publication.
The human brain is the main organ of the human central nervous system. It is located in the head, protected by the skull. It has the same general structure as the brains of other mammals, but with a more developed cerebral cortex and various other functions not afforded to other mammals. Arranged so that the being can fulfil its specific purpose in the grand scheme of life, its Consciousness Evolution which differs from the purpose of life of other animals, no doctrine just physics.
Common misconceptions
List of common misconceptions about the FIGU information by subject
Explanation about the broad subject of why [show/hide]
- People do not use only ten percent of their brains. While it is true that a small minority of neurons in the brain are actively firing at any one time, the inactive neurons are important too. This misconception has been commonplace in American culture at least as far back as the start of the 20th century, and was attributed to William James, who apparently used the expression metaphorically.
- The Human Brain, a very powerful organ, can either be used to stimulate valuable processes which promote Health, or evoke processes which destroy the organism and life even its own life.[1]
- All humans learn in fundamentally similar ways. In particular, there is no evidence that people have different learning styles, nor that catering teaching styles to purported learning styles improves information retention.
- Mental abilities are not absolutely separated into the left and right cerebral hemispheres of the brain. Some mental functions such as speech and language (e.g. Broca's area, Wernicke's area) tend to activate one hemisphere of the brain more than the other, in some kinds of tasks. If one hemisphere is damaged at an early age, these functions can often be recovered in part or even in full by the other hemisphere (see Neuroplasticity). Other abilities such as motor control, memory, and general reasoning are served equally by the two hemispheres.
- The malleability of the genes frees humans from genetic determinism and from a causal predetermination of all events or actions.[2]
- False thoughts cause physical and psychic health problems such as feeling miserable, weak and ill. Its difficult to diagnose as there are no logical causes from a purely physiological perspective.[3]
- While the placebo effect causes health improvements or healing, the nocebo effect has a precisely opposite effect and is damaging to the health, is dangerous and, under certain circumstances, even deadly.[4]
- Angst, gloomy expectations, negative imaginings and worries are as bad if not worse in regard to physical and psychic health as alcohol, nicotine and various other toxic substances.[5]
- If there is a human head (with a human brain), then there is a human spirit-form connected to it.[6]
- Humans have seven senses not five, but the other two senses are abnormally neglected for economic reasons on Earth, therefore not developed, atrophy, rot, due to not being a feature in Earths abnormal education system.[8][9]
- A very specific acid forms in the brain, which the Plejaren in their language call Lekatron. This acid is responsible for the ageing process of human beings. This Lekatron acid already begins to form in the brain of a human being as soon as one reaches his or her full human body function in the still pregnant womb. The formation of this acid at this point in time however takes place in such tiny amounts that it practically cannot be analysed. The progressive ageing of the life form increases with the brain's own production of this Lekatron acid, which is genetically contingent. An ageing process of the physical body begins with this ongoing and increased production, which lasts for decades, centuries, even thousands, tens of thousands of years, depending on the specific life form and its possible age.[10]
- The incubation period for the disease which causes little holes to form in the brain leading to dementia CJDCreutzfeldt–Jakob syndrome / BSEBovine Spongiform Encephalopathy caused by feeding animals their own excrement containing manganese causing agglutination with admixture of citrus fruit peel and specific insect pesticide[11] binding the prions in the methane is longer the higher the evolution of the life form, therefore, with human beings it can range from 40 to 50 years.[12]
Many will die before they reach the acute stages.[13][14]
- It is not true that by the age of two years, humans have generated all of the brain cells they will ever have, a belief held by medical experts until 1998. It is now understood that new neurons can be created in some parts of the postnatal brain. A 2013 study showed that also in old age, about 700 new neurons are produced in the hippocampus daily.
- Vaccines do not cause autism or autism spectrum disorders. Although fraudulent research by Andrew Wakefield claimed a connection, repeated attempts to reproduce the results ended in failure, and the research was ultimately shown to have been manipulated.
