From fake-Democracy to a true democracy.

When a Man Loves a Woman.  The most beautiful story of love. A Scientific Model Of The Brain: From Instinct To Reason. How come did we get fooled into forgetting that the key reason for a society to flourish is not the name they give to the political system or whether the political power is elected by the people, but whether there is some reasonable balance of opportunities: It is a shame that the legal system decides the disputes between citizens based on what litigant hires the most powerful attorney.  It is a shame that only those who have a lot of money are able to receive the most effective medical treatments.  It is a shame that kids born to wealthy families have it much easier to be accepted in an elite school.  It is a shame that in today's fake democratic system a person's worth is solely measured by the amount of money he or she owns.

Scientific Model of the Brain - From Instinct to Reason: How does the Brain work?

See formatted version  here . A SCIENTIFIC MODEL OF THE BRAIN: FROM INSTINCT TO REASON The main purpose of the brain is to optimize our interaction with our environment, in order to achieve the organism's ultimate objectives. How the brain works in a nutshell: The model does not follow the general belief that there is something magical in the brain, responsible for our prodigious human intelligence. Quite the opposite, the model employs the scientific method to explore what are the reasons and causes producing the kind of intelligent behaviors we observe: First hypothesize some causes and reasons for the data, then build a model implementing said hypotheses, and put them to the test. If the predictions are not confirmed, correct the model by redefining the hypothesised underlying reasons and run the test once again until a satisfactory match is achieved. Now, fascinatingly, these are the sheer principles of our mesmerizing reasoning ability. Indeed, let us consider what mental proc...
