Random

I think parts of the brain of the human species are going to atrophy as we use them less and less. Apart from all the things which we'll probably add to the human brain, natural processes might leave us unrecogniseable to people living today.
What abilities do you think might go first?
Memory?

Posts to come:

Psychology: Anxiety disorders, Adolph Hitler's personality, associations, dieting, masochism
AND
The UN, hosts in Japan, crowd behaviour, informal "preference surveys" (ratings) of different countries, fund managers.

Also, it's about time I got stuck in to religion; my attitudes to it have been obvious but I'm yet to explicitly comment on it.
- The presence of religion in language
- Environmentalism as a new religion (Paying to make oneself carbon neutral is like paying the church to forgive you for your sins..)
- Evangelicals

This could be a very big and complicated blog post. But give it a whirl.
