Is it possible that our body is nothing more than a vessel to carry our brain? Everything the body does is in reaction to protect the brain. Bodily functions clean and oxygenate the blood for the brain. Our reactions are always to protect the brain. If we fall do we not extend our arms. If shot at do we not cover our heads.

Lastly, we can live without most (if not all) body parts except for one. We can not live without a brain.

So is it possible the BRAIN is the real us and the BODY is nothing more than a house per se. Which could also explain evolution IMO. The smarter we get the more evolved we get. Its like saying the richer someone gets the better the house they build for themselves.
 
From an evolutionary point of view, the body is an object that can send its genes to a new generation. Thus, the brain and the rest of the body serve the needs of the gonads. The brain merely aids the process.
 
interesting concept.

Though some could argue they think with there heart... and I sure you'll have some women out there that are sure some guy's think with an organ that hangs between their legs.
 
you can not live with out all your body parts except for one
you can not live with out almost everything in your body except your extremeties
