The human brain is so complex that even today, after extensive research, we know very little about it. As one expert has said: “The more we know, the more we realize how little we know, and how much more we need to know.”
Research tells us that even geniuses like Einstein, who appear to have used their brain capacities to the full, only utilized a small part of them. The major part of their brains remained unused throughout their lives. The question arises, then, as to how and why nature produced this marvellous thing called the human brain? Was it really through an evolutionary process? It is said that everything develops according to usage and exigency. But how has that part of the mind, which has never been put to use, come into existence? Darwinism asserts that the human organism, including the brain, has developed in response to the challenges it has faced in its efforts to survive. But how does one explain the formation and development of parts of the brain which have never even been used? If “usage” is the creator of things, then how can lack of usage have created anything? The continued existence of an unused part of the brain in every human being proves that it is provided by some external agency rather than acquired by man’s efforts; it negates Darwin’s theory that a selection process, involving the survival of the fittest, is at work in nature. □
