We are thoughts that have manifested the
physical machine, the body.
-
We are impulses of intelligence in a
larger universe of intelligence that have learned how to
create physical matter. We create the mind and we create the
body.
-
We make a new body once a year! The body
is in a constant state of renewal.
-
A new skin once a month!
-
A new skeleton every three months!
-
A new stomach lining every five days!
-
Every six weeks the DNA is replaced!
According to the U.S. Bureau of Chemistry and Soils, the
chemical and mineral composition of the average human body
breaks down as follows:
- 65% Oxygen
- 18% Carbon
- 10% Hydrogen
- 3% Nitrogen
- 1.5% Calcium
- 1% Phosphorous
- 0.35% Potassium
- 0.25% Sulfur
- 0.15% Sodium
- 0.15% Chlorine
- 0.05% Magnesium
- 0.0004% Iron
-
0.00004% Iodine
Additionally, our bodies contain trace quantities of copper,
zinc, fluorine, silicon, manganese, aluminum, and arsenic. Those
amounts of elements total less than one dollar.
However, the average person owns approximately 14 to 18 square
feet of skin. If you base the skin's value on the selling price
of cowhide, which is about $0.25 per square foot, the value of
an average person's skin is a whopping $3.50!

Below is another opinion from the
Indiana University School of Medicine :
How much is a human body worth? When broken down into fluids,
tissues and germ fighting our bodies are worth more than $45
million.
This price tag on the human body is based on a survey published
in Wired magazine. It found that vital organs are no longer the
most valuable body parts. Rather, bone marrow heads the
list…priced at $23 million, based on 1,000 grams at $23,000 per
gram.
DNA can fetch $9.7 million, while extracting antibodies can
bring $7.3 million. A lung is worth $116,400, a kidney $91,400
and a heart $57,000.
Women's eggs are costlier than men's sperm. The survey found
that a fertile woman could sell 32 egg cells over eight years
for $224,000; however, for a man to earn the same amount, he
would have to make 12 sperm donations a month for 20 years.
The prices are based on cost estimates taken from hospitals and
insurance companies, and are based on projected prices only in
the United States. Of course, the prices also assume that all
these substances can be extracted from living tissue for sale.
Although this break down is illegal, unethical and also
impossible, you should not feel like you are worth just a mere
$4.50.
You can feel like $45 million, instead!
