Scientists have established a link between religious fundamentalism and brain damage

[Yurt]

I think they also discovered a link between politicizing psychiatry and cases of micropenis.

Doctor: You have a case of micropenisitas.

Democrat: What is a penis?

"Scientists have established a link between religious fundamentalism and brain damage"

This explains a lot about those two poor things, Truth Rejector and Big Chihuahua.

Yep; because in your myopic lie and denial filled world, there is nothing wrong with JackOFF (Jack) or WayLEFTofCENTER (Centerleftfl).

[Truth Detector]

You mean you penis can get smaller by reading shit? Okay, that's new. (Though, I'm sure there is a link to deflating linked to men reading psychiatric shit they DON'T wanna know).

No, reading your shit will LOWER ones IQ.

[Truth Detector]

Truth Detector and Bigdog created the United States? That's new. Thanks.

Stuck on stupid.

A study published in the journal Neuropsychologia has shown that religious fundamentalism is, in part, the result of a functional impairment in a brain region known as the prefrontal cortex. The findings suggest that damage to particular areas of the prefrontal cortex indirectly promotes religious fundamentalism by diminishing cognitive flexibility and openness—a psychology term that describes a personality trait which involves dimensions like curiosity, creativity, and open-mindedness.

Neuropsychologia is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that focuses on cognitive neuroscience. It was established in 1963, and is published by Elsevier.

This is the least surprising thing I'll ever read.

"While Muslims engaged in violent protests worldwide over caricatures of Muhammad have insisted any image of their prophet is considered blasphemous, a prominent frieze in the U.S. Supreme Court portrays the Islamic leader wielding a sword."
"In 1997, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, or CAIR, protested the Supreme Court’s Muhammad sculpture, saying, according to its annual report for that year, “While appreciating the fact that Muhammad (p.b.u.h.) was included in the court’s pantheon of 18 prominent lawgivers of history, CAIR noted that Islam discouraged its followers from portraying any prophet in paintings, sculptures or other artistic representations.”

Fuck You and your Sharia Law, Ralph!

Apparently our nation was created by "wing nuts".....all 50 states reference GOD in their constitutions. Our courts require an oath sworn before God in order to be under oath. Even our politicians are required to place a hand on the Holy Bible and swear an oath before God...even the democrats. And show me one person that does not endorse spending money with the oath "in God we Trust" engraved upon it?

And what does that make our Supreme Court? A group of nuts? When you walk up the steps to the building that houses our most Supreme Court....we find the lawgivers facing MOSES as he is holding the 10 commandments. And more clearly? When you open the twin doors to go in? You find a list of the 10 commandments of God.

What about the bible verses itched all over the buildings in DC?

James Madison was clearly a nutjob (the father of our constitution). "We have staked the whole of our political institutions upon the capacity of mankind for self government, upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, TO SUSTAIN OURSELVES ACCORDING TO THE 10 COMMANDMENTS OF GOD." -- James Madison


Leave it up to snowflakes to revisit history actual and declare our founders.... WING NUTS.

Indeed....."SUGGESTS" is a very scientific term not to mention the fact that PSYCHOLOGY is not actually a discipline of Applied Science (as no one can actually read minds....they only subjectively make a conclusion based upon what the patient chooses to reveal.....mankind has never been known to deceive anyone.

All this to avoid admitting that you have brain damage.

Once again.....a leftist presents "pseudo philosophy" dressed up like science. But.....on the bright side you have been able to do what no one in history has ever accomplished finding the part of the brain that is responsible for FAITH.

"I don't like what scientists say so I'm just gonna pretend that I discredit their whole field so I don't have to reconcile their conclusions with my own shitty instincts, behavior, character, and judgment."

Ummm...that wasn't added to our currency until 1956.

[LV426]

Even our politicians are required to place a hand on the Holy Bible and swear an oath before God

No they're not.

They're not required to put their hands on the Bible to take the oath of office.

You don't know what the fuck you're talking about because you have the brain damage to which the OP is referring.

So what?

Since when is not honoring your father and mother a felony?

What about them?

A design aesthetic.

That's all about the architects who designed and built them.

But that's not a state endorsement of them.

Many of them were wingnuts. They were slaveholders, racists, bigots, antisemites, and misogynists. They are the product of their times.

Religion = "rigid thought" is a false equivalency. Religion is based on immutable principles

I would agree there is no thought in religion.
