The authors tell us that brain scans show us that man made God rather than God making man. It’s hard to make this stuff up.

The Los Angeles Times has published an opinion piece by J. Anderson Thomson and Clare Aukofer arguing that brain scans help prove that man creadted God.

In recent years scientists specializing in the mind have begun to unravel religion’s “DNA.” They have produced robust theories, backed by empirical evidence (including “imaging” studies of the brain at work), that support the conclusion that it was humans who created God, not the other way around. And the better we understand the science, the closer we can come to “no heaven … no hell … and no religion too.”

Note that one of the authors is a trustee for the Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science. It’s amazing how stupid Darwinism can make otherwise intelligent people. The authors tell us that brain scans show us that man made God rather than God making man. It’s hard to make this stuff up. At least theists are wise enough to know that brain scans aren’t going to tell us if atheism is true or false.

Science and Culture

Science and Culture Today (SCT) provides original reporting and analysis about evolution, neuroscience, bioethics, intelligent design and other science-related fields, including breaking news about scientific research. It also covers the impact of science on culture and conflicts over free speech and academic freedom in science. Finally, it fact-checks and critiques media coverage of scientific issues.
