Quotes from a recent article:
> 
> "Selective brain damage modulates human spirituality"
> 
> http://www.physorg.com/news185027522.html
> 
> "recent advances in neuroscience have started to make the complex mental processes associated with religion and spirituality more accessible."
> 
> "The group found that selective damage to the left and right posterior parietal regions induced a specific increase in ST" 
> [ST = "self-transcendence"]-Thank you George for this reference. It is much like the work of Andrew Newberg, M.D. as reported in his books, especially "Why God Won't go Away".
