What's in your RAM

RAM is useful because it's a quick way to access frequently used data. Sure, you could stream all data live from your hard drive and keep all temporary data in your swap partition, but that's so slow, even at 7200rpm.

The human brain is similar, though obviously much more complex. Eisenstein once said that there's no need to memorize anything that you could look up in a book. Now with the wide proliferation and ubiquity of the Internet, there really no reason to know anything, right?

Well, what is the brain, and a bigger question, who are we? The person is not flesh and blood, or we would all be nearly identical, and a paraplegic would be less a person. If you pile a bunch of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen in a corner, it isn't human, just a bunch of dirty air.
So isn't the person in the brain? Lose a limb and you're shocked, but otherwise unchanged. Get a lobotomy and you're similar to who you were, but for all intents and purposes, you're a different person. So what in the brain is us? Are we a collection of memories? Are we nothing more than an artifical structure, conjured into being by the calcium ion exchange of a million synaptic firings? As scary as that may sound, I believe that we are. So if we are what's in our brain, then what's in yours?

Yes, we could always look up God's word online or in a book, but that's still keeping it apart from us. I think we should all memorize the Bible, not necessarily to keep it accessible, but to make it a part of us. We are told to keep the word of God in our heart, and we all know that most instances of the word "heart" in all of written history actually means "the brain".

Isn't it amazing how the Bible, written millions of years ago (or something, I really have no idea) speaks truths that we and our science are still finding out for ourselves.
Noah was told to build an ark of exactly the perfect dimensions for maximum seaworthyness, the same dimensions we use today. I think it was Moses who was told by God to circumcise babies exactly when their bodies would produce enough blood and clotting agents to heal up from that? (remember leaches being used in the 1800AD era to remove "evil blood" from a person's body to cure them? Moses' days were many thousands of years before then). David was given a vision, of which he described the earth floating in space. Some people (though few) still believe that the earth is sitting on the back of an elephant, which is standing on the back of a turtle, which itself is floating in a bowl of milk--or instead is just "turtles all the way down".

There is no doubt in my mind that the Bible is Truth incarnat, and the more we learn of our universe, the more my belief is strengthened.
