Are humans hard-wired for faith?
2007-04-05
Interesting idea. Get a handle on this and it may solve some problems if they can make some sort of vaccine that reduces "over-wiring". :-)

NEW YORK (CNN) -- "I just know God is with me. I can feel Him always," a young Haitian woman once told me.

"I've meditated and gone to another place I can't describe. Hours felt like mere minutes. It was an indescribable feeling of peace," recalled a CNN colleague.

#5  > It's Eastertide, and time for the annual secular debunking festival.

The MSM feels free to do this during Christian holidays, cause Christians aren't likely to blow up or behead people.

#4  Make sure you use green wire for ground. Green electrons cause problems when they have to use the red wire. :-)

#2  "Hard wired for faith" and "some sort of vaccine...?"
that's easy; just send some grant money to the UK and let the Lucas company fix it. Lucas, as in 'Prince of Darkness.'
Or send the $$ to me; i did something to my tractor wiring the other day and let all the magic smoke out; not it doesn't work....

#1  It's Eastertide, and time for the annual secular debunking festival. Every year, the same stuff: some alleged biochemist claiming faith is all endorphins, some pseudoarchaeologist unearthing the bones of Christ, the hip postmodern Church-of-What's-Happenin'-Now! Anglican questioning basic Christian doctrine. Come Monday, the boomlet will subside, and we'll be back to the usual low-level grumbles about "breeders" and "Christofascists."
