The brain isn't the ultimate arbiter in my worldview. The brain is the computer for the physical body, the soul is the user of the computer. The soul is higher in the hierarchy, and the brain isn't necessarily aware of it.

When you accept that there are concepts that the tissue of the human brain is incapable of containing, you really free up your spiritual side to experience cool stuff. Some people take drugs in an attempt to make the physical brain reproduce this awareness, but it's a poor substitute.

But of course, you might be right. I'm limited by my skull full of mush, too.
