... "The mind is but a plaything of the body." by Nietschze... (sorry if I've misspelled his name)
I think what he said is very true... after all, the more I think about it... our mind is made up of three speific brains - reptilian brain (the dark side of us, full of physical urges and the such) mammalian brain (the nuturing side, the need to socialise with others and "Breed"!) and the logical brain.. the primate brain, where we learn and absorb information. ...
This thread is being established to consolidate discussion of the "triune brain" model or meme - i.e., the notion that our human brains are a sort of three-level operational structure with a "reptilian" base handling instinctive behaviors, a "paleomammalian" / limbic portion handling emotions, and a "neomammalian" / higher-cognitive portion supporting (e.g.) language and thinking.
