This has to be embarrassing . . . if you’re an atheist. A new study performed at the University of York used targeted magnetism to shut down part of the brain. The result: belief in God disappeared among more than 30 percent of participants.
That in itself may not seem so embarrassing, but consider that the specific part of the brain they frazzled was the posterior medial frontal cortex—the part associated with detecting and solving problems, i.e., reasoning and logic.
In other words, when you shut down the part of the brain most associated with logic and reasoning, greater levels of atheism result.
You’ve heard the phrase, “I don’t have enough faith to be an atheist”? Apparently we can now also say, “I have too many brains to be an atheist.”

This also gives credence to those who state that Islam is not a religion.

I was raised a secular humanist. I didn’t get smart until some time after I converted to Christianity in my mid 40’s. There is something about a firm belief in God which turns on the lights in one’s mind. When TRUTH is one’s only concern -- not popularity, ego, money, etc. -- Truth can then shed its own light on all the problems and issues we face.
And as to David’s comment, “This also gives credence to those who state that Islam is not a religion.” -- ha ha. You are very clever, astute & funny.
I didn’t need a study to know that atheists use less brain matter, as a matter of record, every liberal demon-rats also uses less brain matter and also has less brain cells due to there perverted Bolshevik debouched mentally unbalanced ways.
