Caught in the act!
Of neuroessentialism, that is, on this page. Now, if we scanned people's brains while they read a biology textbook, we would obviously see activity of some sort. That wouldn't prove that evolution is just brain chemistry. Back to neuroscience 101 for you! Consider yourself properly "tsk tsk'ed." (By the way, I tried praying to Joe Pesci, but it didn't work.)
Meh, bugger it. The actual proof was from an article in JAAR about the altered state of mind(s) in Tibetan monks over a 2 year study, showing the growth and changes within the hippo campus over that year, then doing the same for people with depression. They showed (on a much less drastic level) similar changes. As you know, the hippocampus will also regrow or just grow in people who have been on anti depressants form more than 5 years, literally changing the brain's biology to something slightly more "normal". You will further note that it's long been known, but not understood, that the hippocampus is (with a strong statistical correlation) smaller in people with long term, chronic depression. :P
but all that said, if it's worth changing, it's worth changing. heheheheheh
True, though that doesn't prove that god doesn't exist.
hum... did i said that. my bad. I meant to say "prayer is not bs". I was a bit annoywed when i wrote that part, at the anti religion, prayer is stupid, nothign good comes from it lines.
