Hmm...I think that is a contradiction in terms. I presume that you mean that we lack extrasensory perceptions that other creatures possess, because if those creatures had 'superhuman' powers...well...I'm not rightly sure what you mean...edit on 1-3-2012 by Biliverdin because: (no reason given)

Seriously, this old chestnut?
I don't know about you, but I use my brain!
And super logical on how it works, can you only electrify 10% of a puddle? Sheesh...

Okay...well, 'maybe' doesn't really clarify much, but let's see what we can do...primarily it seems from a quick look, that it is not so much that they unused, as their use or function is not properly (or even at all) understood. But perhaps, anyway, that is irrelevent to the point you are making, you seem to be more inclined to understand why our senses are limited, and there may indeed be a relationship.
Most other creatures, the snake is a very good example, view the world in four dimensions, they can 'see', for example in scent, this gives them not only a predatory advantage, but also a defensive one. Other creatures can see in ultra violet, which again gives them certain advantages. Over time, however, humans have found that they work best using only their sight, touch, hearing and taste/smell (hard to differentiate those two). It is likely that when we were less social, and less structured socially, that we would have had a greater sensitivity in some of those senses, but over time, through sexual and natural selection, those senses were un-necessary and were therefore bred out. Or even, possibly, eradicated in other, more ruthless means, as they represented a threat to some forms of social structure. Or simply were not valued. And, diet plays a huge role. Although most of our light receivers are focused in our eyes, we do have the ability to percieve light through other tissues, we simply are not, trained to do so. From birth the emphasis is placed on those primary receptors, and therefore they receive the stimulation to thrive over any other means.
A person who is blind from birth does not for example see in a conventional sense, but that does not mean that they are not able to 'read' and interpret their environment. Similarly a deaf person can still percieve sound, just not in the same way as others. So, in short, 'superhuman' powers, should be a matter a training, and to some extent diet too, but whether this would change the way the brain uses glial cells is beyond my scope of understanding. However, certainly, if you start early enough, you can train the brain to process whatever information you primarily want it to, in theory. Huge ethical problems in testing such a theory though. 'Wild' children hold some clues though.

Just to add insult, those that controls the society rewrite our history into like this: for the whole history(from the very beginning of mankind to today), we only uses sight, touch, hearing and taste/smell
