Answer:
because they not have brain
1) Ans: Because all knowledge bases are composed of CORE elements and PERIPHERAL elements.
The core elements are distinct to that body of knowledge whereas the peripheral elements may be shared by other subject areas. If you think, for example, about the body of knowledge that is nursing and that of medicine, there will be lots of shared subjects/topics but you will be aware that medicine and nursing are also quite different.
2) Ans: As with all other modern fields of study, anthropology does not recognize that life exists. To the anthropologist, humanity is but a species of life, and life is no more than a form of matter. Every effect is the result of a cause, which is itself the result of another cause.
The ancients believed in the spontaneous generation of life: Old grain turned into worms and mice if left to its own. But modern science has shown that every mouse has a mother, and herself a mousey mother.
Keep the mousey mothers out of the grain and grain stays grain, never turning into mice. And so with worms and all the other pests: The goods do not go bad when isolated from external pests.
And so with ideas, echoed the social scientists. No one has an idea or an original thought. Everyone gets their ideas from somewhere else, and that else from yet another else.
Beethoven is but the culmination of the ideas of his day, even as Jesus must have borrowed his ideas from the idea markets of his neighborhood. If we look long enough, Mozart’s harmonies can be found in the Gregorian chants and those in the priestly cants of Greek hierophants.
