Why religion is appealing (Introduction)
Dhw, > The clip is properly attributed to Satyansh, and I hope as you do that in the long run things work out. > > I would like to explore the idea you proposed about humans being programmed for religion. They have demonstrated that there is a part of the human brain, and for people who suffer a particular form of epilepsy--they are compelled to worship, regardless of their religion. This religious center is hyperactive.- The interpretation of the effect of the 'religion area' in the temporal lobe, the 'God module' is different than your statement. The epileptic attacks cause a religious 'experience', which doesn't automatically send them rushing off to church.
