"Because we only use 10% of our brains."
No, dipshit, YOU only use 10% of your brain.
That claim has long been debunked anyway, and is a corruption of the original finding that we only use about 10% of our brain at any given time. It doesn't mean that we only use a small 10% all day long, and the rest just sits there. No, we use about 10% here, 10% there, depending on what task we're doing and what we're thinking about. If we used 100% of our brain at once, that would probably be like a grand mal seizure.
But that doesn't keep the ESP/telekinesis believers from spewing this garbage as "proof" that our minds are more incredibly powerful than what we use them for.

Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
