THE MOST COMPLEX OBJECT IN THE WHOLE UNIVERSE- THE HUMAN BRAIN

David's proclamation in the book of Psalms that we are fearfully and wonderfully made is a known scientific fact today.
Sharrock Holmes, in his detective movies constantly referred the brain as the universe between our ears.
Today, with the most advanced astronomical equipments, especially the Hubble Space telescope, that is able to see the furthest visible object in the universe, known as a quarser, some 20 billion light years away, scientists are able to confirm that there is nothing, in this vastness of space that is more complex than the human brain.
The universe is so huge that scientists measure distances in light years, which is the distance that a beam of light travels over a period of a year. So, 20 billion light years is the distance that light will have travelled over a period of 20 billion years. If you consider that light travels at a speed of 186,000 miles per second, you can then imagine how far light will have traveled over a period of 20 billion years.
So, to then be told by scientists who spend their entire life studying and observing the universe that there is nothing else created in the universe that is more complex than the human brain is quite astounding.
Neural- scientists have gone a step further and given an analysis of this comparison. They have estimated that the number of cells, commonly known as neurons in the human brain to be in excess of 200 billions.
Our galaxy, the Milky way galaxy, is said to contain over 200 billion stars. In turn, the universe itself is said to have over 200 billion galaxies.
These cells that make up the grey matter between our ears, that can fit the palm of your hand and weighs only 1300g in weight, have branches on one side known as dendrites.
The human brain differs exponentially with that of other animals in that it consists of more cells than that of any other animal.

Observation made through the use of modern equipments such as the FMRI scanners, have revealed continuous interactions and chemical communications, consistently occuring between these cells giving us the ability of perception and volition, arming us with the ability to think and process different information in different parts of the brain. This is the distinction that makes us different from other animals.
The surprising thing about these neurons is that they do not physically touch each other as they pass information from one part of the brain to the other.
It is also clear today that the brain cells increases with knowledge as well as experience and are capable of making countless number of connections in the brain through what is known as synaptic connections making it very complicated.
These countless number of synaptic connections makes our ability to think almost unlimited.
The comparison of the number of the stars in the entire universe, which are estimated to be in excess of 72 sextelion, which is about 72 followed by 22 zeros is said to dwarf the synaptic connections in the human brain, showing that the human brain is a true universe based between our two ears.
One might, however, argue that to give an estimate on the number of stars in the visible universe contradicts the bible, which says that they are uncountable, but nothing could be further from the truth as we shall see below.
According to one scientist, Alan Garth in his book, "The Inflationary Universe," to count the number of stars in our galaxy, which, as I have indicated above, is estimated to be over 200 billion, counting one star a second, day and night, would take us 3,000 years to tally all the 200 billion stars.
 If we decide to count the 72 followed 22 zeros number of stars in the universe, again counting 1 star a second, day and night, would take us 3,000 years times 7 followed by eleven zeros which is equal to 21 followed by 14 zero or 2,100 trillion years. If we consider that the age of the universe, according to scientists is 13.5 billion years, then we come to the biblical fact that the stars are actually uncountable as the above mathematics shows that it would take way more than the age of the universe to count them all.
