Thread:User talk:Nebuchadnezzar/Neurology: belief v knowledge

Just came across a claim that if you ask someone a "knowledge" type question ("does two plus two equal four?") you see the same neural activity as a "belief" type question ("do angels watch over you?"). That seems reasonable to me, as it should trigger an "I believe this to be true" response regardless of the reasoning behind it, but at the same time it sounds like the kind of thing that would get your big-green-rage-monster on.
