> why do we say "it came to me"?

I suspect the language here came about because a long long time ago we believed that ideas werent created in us - but came from a higher spiritual being (aka god).

We still have language which imlies that ideas are not created but somehow are transferred from one place to another - see the question "Where do you get your ideas fom?"
