Did You Know That Your Mind Is A Battlefield?


Your brain is not just occupied by brain cells. Those electric currents between nerve cells occur in patterns that can be reliably replicated, just like DNA. The organisms that use this as the storage medium for their inheritance from one generation to the next are what we call ideas. Ideas have a complex, multi-stage life cycle. They can lie dormant or hibernate inside your memory, even when they are not ‘on your mind’ at the moment. They use your ability to speak and communicate to transmit the information into another person’s mind. That is their dispersal mechanism, like plant seeds using the wind to carry their seeds to new environments. Ideas cooperate and reinforce each other. This helps them to survive.
Ideas don’t always cooperate. Sometimes, they encounter competition from different ideas for the same niche in a person’s mind. Then, you get cognitive dissonance, when there isn’t room for two ideas to both hold the position of being ‘true’ inside the person’s mind. Whichever ideas hold the high ground inside a person’s mind as being true stand a better chance for reproductive success. A person who believes certain things to be true will be more likely to try to convince others of this belief, thereby introducing the idea to the new habitat in the other people’s minds if they are successfully convinced. Ideas will defend themselves if they encounter one that is trying to push them out of the niche they occupy. This will lead to a person arguing in favor of the ideas they believe are true. Ideas take advantage of human social behavior to spread themselves about. Some ideas have made tremendously successful use of mass media like the radio, television, and the internet to spread themselves to many people at once, instead of just one or a few at a time. Some ideas live in symbiosis with the humans they inhabit, containing information that the human mind can use and translate into action that will benefit that person.
