But of course, they have to in order to make sense out of those fairy tales and relate them to reality.




Real0ne -> RE: Religious People Use More of their Brain than Atheists! (7/18/2017 9:37:41 AM)

truly I feel the pain atheists are suffering now that science can prove the greater processing capacity and brain power of religious people. [not]

religion and god is succor for the feebleminded and you are the perfect proof of it.




Real0ne -> RE: Religious People Use More of their Brain than Atheists! (7/18/2017 11:46:19 AM)

talk about deficient processing power, religion and god are not the same thing.
belief in god alone is not religion [8|]

Religion rots the brain tis why I chose to ply mine with cheap chardonnay.




Real0ne -> RE: Religious People Use More of their Brain than Atheists! (7/18/2017 11:58:09 AM)

scientific tests however prove the opposite.





Musicmystery -> RE: Religious People Use More of their Brain than Atheists! (7/18/2017 12:02:26 PM)

No, your link is a report about a study exploring the benefits of meditation on the central nervous system.





WhoreMods -> RE: Religious People Use More of their Brain than Atheists! (7/18/2017 12:06:23 PM)

Really?
What do they use more brain for? Not for thinking or anything, obviously.
Do religious cannibals eat more of the brain than atheist cannibals, or something like that?




WickedsDesire -> RE: Religious People Use More of their Brain than Atheists! (7/18/2017 12:12:04 PM)

Well his book had shag all reviews ( I coudnt even find a summary) so maybe the fuker should've got down on his knees obviously on broken glass and prayed to which ever effigy he worships - fuk, what type of christian is he anyway?

Faith and healing: a continuous tradition --
How faith reduces stress --
Healthy is the Lord! --
Faith and psychological troubles --
Mind games --
The shield of faith --
Wired for God! --
Not any faith will do --
The virtues of Christian character --
An intimate God --
Being spiritually active --
Fast and pray.

How Enlightenment Changes Your Brain

In this original and groundbreaking book, Andrew Newberg and Mark Robert Waldman turn their attention to the pinnacle of the human experience: enlightenment. Through his brain- scan studies on Brazilian psychic mediums, Sufi mystics, Buddhist meditators, Franciscan nuns, Pentecostals, and participants in secular spirituality rituals, Newberg has discovered the specific neurological mechanisms associated with the enlightenment experience—and how we might activate those circuits in our own brains.

In his survey of more than one thousand people who have experienced enlightenment, Newberg has also discovered that in the aftermath they have had profound, positive life changes.

Enlightenment offers us the possibility to become permanently less stress-prone, to break bad habits, to improve our collaboration and creativity skills, and to lead happier, more satisfying lives. Relaying the story of his own transformational experience as well as including the stories of others who try to describe an event that is truly indescribable, Newberg brings us a new paradigm for deep and lasting change.

Praise for the Book

“I love every book I have read from Andy Newberg and Mark Waldman and this book is their best yet. How Enlightenment Changes Your Brain is a book you just can’t put down. It will show you how enlightenment is real with clear underpinnings in the brain.


Atheists prefer delusion.

All religious people meditate, got something better, since instead of countering you simply confirm what I posted.





Real0ne -> RE: Religious People Use More of their Brain than Atheists! (7/18/2017 12:26:18 PM)

Countering? I'm pointing out you've misrepresented the text in your OP -- which your post here confirms.
