The mind is the most obvious thing which sets apart human beings from animals. Mind is not synonymous with 'brain'.

The mind has the capacity for thought, including imagination, foresight, analysis, and emotion, which in various ways use the powers of the brain.

The faculties such as compassion, empathy, and the desire for justice, point to man as God's greatest creation.

There are many held perspectives and branches that deal with the mind.

Voluntarism

Strucuturalism

Functionalism

The Gestalt Movement

Psychoanalysis

Behaviorism
