Diving Into the Minds of Humans

      The movie Inception was a highly engrossing and interesting movie. It was about the concept of being able to delve into a human mind and create or find ideas/secrets. A group of people would be put to sleep using a sedative. Next, an "architect" would come into the dream and build a world that would seem realistic to the person so they wouldn't think themselves to be inside of a dream. The other teammembers would infiltrate the dream and search the area for a vault of some sort where a form of information would be hidden.
     This movie was made for younger and more agile minds. It seems to me that many adults had multiple problems following the complex story while the younger audience felt no such qualms. Could it be that with the puzzles that kids grope with in video games/technology their minds have become more advanced? Maybe even more evolved then that of their predecesors?
     Humans have advantages over some animals....and many disadvantages to them. Such as, did you know that humans are the only species of creatures that have not rid themselves of inferior versions of themselves? These people are less inteligent *cough* Michel Rosenberg *cough* and way down the society of today making our scientific finds to become more sparce then required. It now seems to be that the majority of our population is built up of people who are similar to us SUPREME humans in looks, however in thought procession are inferior and way our whole race down.
     Although we do have a few disadvantages to animals our advantages greatly outnumber the disadvantages and make us the supreme race of the planet. We have superior brains that allow us to create anew and not just drestoy. We were gifted with our thumbs which are the most basic tools that we require to wield the tools we have created. We are driven by curiosity which brought us to the current era of cars, planes, ships, phones, and computers. Without any of these things we would not be able to mark ourselves as king.
     The brain computes all of these things without fault and allows us to comprehend new concepts and ideas as they are created. However as we grow old, so does our mind. We start to become more forgetful, less coordinated, and it becomes increasingly harder for us to grasp the new concepts of the coming generation. These factors contribute to the hypothesis of the younger generation being smarter then their predecesors, and it turns out that we are not and just that their brains are slowing down seemingly making us smarter although all the while they are just becoming more uninteligent.
