POWDER IS ANTI-CHRIST

I have for a long time believed that the Anti-Christ will be someone like "Powder"! Let me explain! Scientist say most people only use 10 to 20 percent of their brain capabilities! I have always felt artists whether they be musicians, savants, mathematicians, painters, mechanics... whatever, anyone who is brilliant in their field are able to tap into the other 80 to 90 percent of their brain's capabilities! I also believe that things like ESP, Astral Projection, Telekinesis, Psychic abilities, and many other so called "Paranormal Phenomenon " are a result of once again being able to tap into that "hidden" area of their brain! I believe that we ALL might be able to do this under the right circumstances. Getting back to the Anti-Christ... I believe someone will be born that is able to tap into a large portion of their brain's capabilities! History and genetics show this to be true! That it IS just a matter of time! This person will not only be a genius in EVERYTHING they do, but be able to read minds, move objects with their minds, speak any language, heal with their minds, on and on an on! Their capabilities will seem endless! In other words, they will be conceived as a God! Or as Jesus Christ incarnate, returned to the earth! This is just one humble human's theory!

Good thing all the Bible is nothing but ridiculous fairy tales written by half-literate goatherds and misogynist 'shroom consumers.

Hey, there weren't 'shroom consumers. Opium maybe.

There is no such thing as a hidden area of the brain, and there is no evidence that humans only use a small percentage of their brain's potential. The limiting factors of intelligence in organic beings comes from electrical signal degradation and the body's ability to supply nutrients to the brain for fuel.

The brain metabolizes glucose for fuel to produce electrical signals. Those signals travel along neural pathways and in the process creates consciousness, self awareness, and the ability to make decisions.

The signals that the brain produces get weaker as they travel though the brain. That is called signal degradation. It is a physical property of nature. It doesn't matter if it is a signal passing through your brain or a signal passing down a telephone wire. If you want to see the effect of this in nature, just look at an elephant. An elephant has a massive brain and nervous system and their brain has many more neurons and electrical current than humans. However, because of the massive size of the animal, the electrical signals have much farther to travel causing the animal to experience large amounts of degradation.

Hence, an elephant uses much more brain power than humans, but still aren't as intelligent or agile. The way I explain this is overly simplified, but I think you might get the idea. There are entire branches of science dedicated to understanding these principals, so I can't really explain it well in one small post.

my theory is that if humandkind hadn't invented an exclamation mark, at least one person would've felt inadequately eloquent.

I think the OPs post is hilarious and I thoroughly enjoyed watching everyone get wound up in reply and become eager to demonstrate their superior intelligence and research skills.

Isn't really humble, nor is it a theory- hypothesis at best.
