The same part of the brain lights up

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Did you ever finish watching those lectures of that neurologist who  was explaining to Dawkins and others the results of spirituality, and religion on the human brain. If humans have bad wiring that cause them to be spiritual then we shouldn't blame them since its not there fault they didn't choose to be wired wrong etc.

I don't remember how long ago those lectures were though. Since my semester is over its on a list of things I want to catch up to.

I don't remember those, do you remember the neuroogist's name?

The lecture video is totally worth watching.

Oh and this guy! http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/neuroskeptic/#.UhAHElPF9wI I love that guy.

Right.

First, good talk:

(The Dorothy Bishop one at least, not through the rest yet)

I'm increasingly sure I need to revise a lot of stupid thinking.

Not stupid, just underinformed.

Ramachandran, the Director of the Centre for Brain and Cognition and Distinguished Professor with the Psychology Department and Neurosciences Program at the University of California.

Looking for updated lectures, or at least the one where he explains that people might be hardwired wrong to believe in something that is false when it's cleary true. For example: a patient believing that their right arm exists even though they clearly have it cut off.

Similar lecture though:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjJ7jIVUDU4

Looks interesting, but is very long so I'll save it for later. I have a speech I need to finish by Thursday at noon, and you would think I have plenty of time to do it but I don't, really.
