A neuroscientist Explains How Religious Fundamentalist Hijacks The Brain

[skews13]

In moderation, religious and spiritual practices can be great for a person's life and mental well-being. But religious fundamentalism—which refers to the belief in the absolute authority of a religious text or leaders—is almost never good for an individual. This is primarily because fundamentalism discourages any logical reasoning or scientific evidence that challenges its scripture, making it inherently maladaptive.

Fundamentalism and adherence to an ideology (like religion or politics) can certainly be destructive. To me, one of its worst qualities is that it all but kills fundamental human curiosity. That almost inevitably makes a person automatically dismiss any input that doesn't fit, suit, advance and protect their worldview, and it distorts their very perceptions and thought processes.

In any given situation, then, these people often end up being part of the problem.

A clear statement of what is taking place in public education and the universities in America today, with Democrat totalitarian philosophy and "wokism" taking the place of traditional religion.

Replace "religious" with "governmental" and the results are the same. Absolutism is never a good thing.

Fundamentalism isn't traditional religion.. Its reactionary about 1916 against science and modernity.

yeah I know------SO? Maimonides wrote: (approx) "be careful
what you write because some people believe anything they read in
a book must be true"

Brain washing our children? Such as suggesting that the Universe came from a Cosmic Egg of Energy (of unknown origins) i.e., THE BIG BANG THEORY? While propagating a message that life evolved from dead matter without any scientific evidence whatsoever that can verify this suggestion?

Here is what the pseudo intellectual humanists (man is superior to the creating force, God) propagate as truth.

According to atheistic EVOLUTION: Billions of years ago NOTHING caused caused a tiny ball of matter to explode outwards at the speed of light, then Billions of years later (no one knows how long) the expanding violence created all the stars, mass matter and energy in the known universe....form lifeless, mindless unintelligent particles of 2 simple gasses (hydrogen and helium). About 13 Billions years later........the earth exists as a product of these floating particles of STAR DUST (4.5 billion years ago TODAY, when I was a child in middle school the age of the earth was just 3 billion years old....today the earth has aged billions of years in a matter of a few decades and this is propagated as TRUTH)? Somebody is lying either yesterday or today. Both can't be true........truth does not evolve.

After the earth was formed..........Humans evolved from Dead Matter (star dust)......that's the truth as declared by the pseudo intellectuals. In other words to some it up:

Atheists declare that men evolved from frogs and fish (cold blooded animals) after they were created by random chance with no intelligence whatsoever. The intelligence found to exist today came from an UNINTELLIGENT source of unknown origin. That everything came from NOTHING......and Random Violence created Exquisite Design (DNA).

Never mind the logic and reason found to exist in the Law of the Excluded Middle (nothing can be both true and false). Either a proposition (an argument in sustaining or denying a position) or its NEGATION (opposite) is true. There is no empirical evidence to be found to exist in the middle.



Christian faith is based upon Logic and Reason. For example: How the scriptures detail the origins of life in total agreement with the application of the scientific method which includes, observation, reproduction and consistency via scientific experiment.

Show me one example of a scientific experiment that proves that life is the product of dead matter with an application of unknown energy. Every time that such an experiment is attempted (attempting to reproduce life in the lab through the suggested process of animating dead matter into an example of living tissue via an application of external energy).......Science always "falsifies" rather than confirms such a theory. Yet that does not stop the pseudo intellectuals from promoting this theory as TRUTH in our class rooms.

Now show me "ONE" scientific experiment that falsifies the Creation model explained in the Holy Scriptures. No theories, hypothesis, assumption, speculations, or suggestions........just empirical evidence as proven through the SCIENTIFIC METHOD.


The scriptures totally agree with the Pasteur Model that explains "biogenesis" and falsifies "abiogenesis".

Pasteur demonstrated that LIFE can only be reproduced/created from preexisting life within the same species (no evolution of life from dead matter).

"And God said, let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so. And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind; and God saw that it was good." -- Genesis 1:25-26
