Study finds that shutting down parts of the brain can make you an Atheist and less prejudice

[theHawk]

So it’s official, turning off parts of your brain can make you a dumb lefty.

Scientists can use magnets to make you less religious and prejudiced

By shutting down the threat-processing centre of the brain, scientists weakened people's faith in God and made them less prejudiced

www.independent.co.uk

Causing brain damage can make you lose faith in God, and change their ideas about immigration. Specifically when the “threat processing” center is damaged/disabled.

Well there we have it, this is a great scientific reason we have brain dead functional morons that support open borders and have zero belief in God.

Your delirious. Why would a "god" design such a mechanism if not being paranoid that others would doubt the existence of this impossible dipshit who already knew what was going to happen?

It’s not “paranoia“ it’s reasoning.

But thanks for proving the point.

whatever your point you write at the level of a 3rd grader. Try some subordination, a little punctuation, a topic sentence, logical connectives like "Because, therefore, however" try it, it's invigorating

 

[TNHarley]

So its saying the people it tested believe in god because of fear, basically. This isnt surprising.

This part. Same with prejudice. Just a bunch of scared pussies apparently, afraid of everything.

Of course it says no such thing...
This was one of Statistican William Briggs' examples of how p-value is logically unable to provde any assurance of truth

===============
Repeated in introductory texts, and began by Fisher himself, are words very like these (these were adapted from Fisher, R. 1970. Statistical Methods for Research Workers. Oliver and Boyd, Edinburgh, fourteenth edition):

Belief in a null hypothesis as an accurate representation of the population sampled is confronted by a logical disjunction: Either the null hypothesis is false, or the p-value has attained by chance an exceptionally low value.

Fisher’s choice of words was poor. This is evidently not a logical disjunction, but can be made into one with slight surgery:

Either the null hypothesis is false and we see a small p-value, or the null hypothesis is true and we see a small p-value.

Stated another way, “Either the null hypothesis is true or it is false, and we see a small p-value.” Of course, the first clause of this proposition, “Either the null hypothesis is true or it is false”, is a tautology, a necessary truth, which transforms the proposition to “TRUE and we see a small p-value.” Or, in the end, Fisher’s dictum boils down to:

We see a small p-value.

In other words, a small p-value has no bearing on any hypothesis (unrelated to the p-value itself, of course). Making a decision because the p-value takes any particular value is thus always fallacious. The decision may be serendipitously correct, as indeed any decision based on any criterion might be, and as it often likely correct because experimenters are good at controlling their experiments, but it is still reached by a fallacy.

Everything Wrong With P-Values Under One Roof

No, that is their religion teaching them murder is good.

Last time I check you lefties were in favor or importing such people, for “diversity”.

What the study shows, retard, is that constant external stimulation of the threat assessment part of the human brain, the way Fox News has addicted you credulous rubes to fear, makes a person more hateful and prejudiced.

This is not surprising in any way.

 

[g5000]

From the actual study:

Moralistic ideologies involving group chauvinism and religion are arguably the most socially impactful—and, at times, the most perniciously divisive. The extent of commitment to political and religious ideologies shifts across contexts, with cues of threat eliciting particularly sharp increases in adherence

Neuromodulation of group prejudice and religious belief

Abstract. People cleave to ideological convictions with greater intensity in the aftermath of threat. The posterior medial frontal cortex (pMFC) plays a ke

For dumbass leftards like yourself, who have no idea what this means.

You fucking leftard idiots will try to use this SCIENCE as a political excuse.

Because that's the way dumbass shit for brains leftards roll.

You are only proving the study to be correct. You've been brainwashed with daily fauxrage for so long, you can no longer think straight. All you see is red. Constantly.

Hate and anger are your defaults.

What the study shows, shit for brains, is you don't know diddly squat about medicine or brain function.

Therefore you should keep your idiotic yap shut, leftard.

I keep track of what you lefties are doing by other means.

Here are three corrections that have to be made for it even to be a QUESTION

Study finds that shutting down parts of the brain can make you an Atheist and less prejudice​

If you phrase it "...parts of YOUR brain can make YOUj" then you see that you posit a YOU and a Brain as if they were different. But it is YOUR Brain and not the Brain. Suppose I said X will cause you to shut down emotions, thinking, and willing -- What is you without emotions thinking and willing ...IT certainly isn't YOU !!!!

IF they 'MAKE' you then the question is invalid. So you voluntariy, freely hold theism and prejudice but you involuntarily hold atheism and 'less prejudice" !!! Then they are not even comparable. I remember the neurosurgeon who touched parts of brain with a probe and made the arms of the patient go up in the air. But patient ALWASY knew whether he willed it or not !!!

Do you really grasp 'prejudice" atheist (far as I know ) Theodore Dalrymple showed the NECESSITY of Prejudice. You should know that book

In Praise of Prejudice: The Necessity of Preconceived Ideas​

Theodore Dalrymple

And note that the connotation of prejudice and not the denotation is what you are using, as if bigotry equals prejudice. IT DOES NOT

 

[Libby von H]

So its saying the people it tested believe in god because of fear, basically. This isnt surprising.

No,it can't be saying that...fear is itself based on what you think is real. You can be an atheist out of fear and I've known many such. MANY

Oh please, lefties fear that Trump is a threat to Democracy, which is utterly ludicrous. The MSM has pumped lefties brains full of nonsense that they gleefully accept because it validates the ideological bent that was beat into their heads from our VERY biased educational system from kindergarten on. They will believe absolutely anything they are told as long as it aligns with their ideology. Boys can be girls on Monday, boys on Friday and anything in between the other days of the week. Gender is fluid and has no bounds. The earth is getting cooler, no it is getting warmer, eh, it is just changing. The list goes on and on.
