My mistake... the percentage of the brain we actually use for conscious thought is more important to my argument than the amount of the brain we use in general... but what I was thinking about as I wrote it (in my exhausted state) was not the brain itself... but the 'mind' (whether they're the same thing is a philosophical debate for another time) or even perhaps the subconscious... does anyone here argue that we still don't understand much of the workings of the subconscious?

'Seeing reality for what it is' is just the sort of statement that makes you sound so condescending and naive! Where do you draw the line between the real and the unreal? And who are you to say that what's real for you is real for everybody else? 'One truth' Right/Wrong philosophy has been the root of many of history's greatest atrocities... and emphasises the ignorance of the masses. I don't want to get into a philosophical argument with you though Draconic Dink... I just... would ask that you're not so presumptuous in future... (a fault I share, perhaps?)
