“Scientists from Northwestern University published a study in the journal Neuropsychologia attempting to establish a link between religious fundamentalism and brain impairment.” The findings suggest that religious fundamentalists have less cognitive flexibility, in addition, the study states that damage to particular areas of the prefrontal cortex indirectly promotes religious fundamentalism. In other words, science is now attempting to say that those who believe the Bible have brain damage.
“The prefrontal cortex is a region of the brain, which is implicated in planning complex cognitive behavior, personality expression, decision making, and moderating social behavior. The most well-known function of this region is considered to be executive function; “abilities to differentiate among conflicting thoughts, determine good and bad, better and best, same and different, future consequences of current activities, working toward a defined goal, prediction of outcomes, expectation based on actions, and social ‘control’ (the ability to suppress urges that, if not suppressed, could lead to socially unacceptable outcomes).
“The study was led by Jordan Grafman of Northwestern University and utilized data from Vietnam War Veterans. The veterans were chosen because a large number of them had damage to brain areas suspected of playing a critical role in functions related to religious fundamentalism. CT scans were taken from both a group of healthy Veterans and the aforementioned group, in addition, the majority of those tested identified as Christian.
“The scientists who conducted the study believe that adherence to religious fundamentalism is the result of some form of brain damage whether it be by brain trauma, a psychological disorder, a drug or alcohol addiction, or simply a particular genetic profile. Also, the scientists believe that in the near future, through various kinds of mental and cognitive exercises the adherence to religious fundamentalism can be eradicated.
“Science has yet to disprove the possibility of God and as a result, have resorted to calling those who adhere to a belief system as damaged.”
According to the Study, “religious fundamentalism refers to an ideology that emphasizes traditional religious texts and discourages progressive thinking about religion and social issues.”
Christian fundamentalism is the belief in biblical inerrancy and is usually described as holding to the literal interpretation of the Bible. Fundamentalists usually believe in a core of Christian beliefs that include the historical accuracy of the Bible and all its events as well as the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. In other words, these scientists are targeting any and all Christians but especially those who believe in the second coming of Jesus Christ.
The study suggests that the 2.3 billion Christians on the planet have some form of brain damage. But the study only evaluated veterans who already had some form of brain injury or war trauma and did not include a wide variety of fundamental Christians in the study. It is not appropriate to make a generalization about all fundamental Christians by injured veterans.
Astonishingly rather than believe in a creator, science would have us believe that humanity originated from either comet dust, Martians, and or have evolved from absolutely nothing. Science has no evidence that God doesn’t exist, rather evolutionists utilize indoctrination, militant ideology, and demoralizing methodology to obliterate any remaining decency. Scientists have assumed that the moral obligation not to kill or steal is not rooted in the Bible. Those Bible principles have translated into laws which are carried out across the world today. The moral relativism of scientists is leading to the same conditions as existed in the French Revolution.
“At the same time anarchy is seeking to sweep away all law, not only divine, but human. The centralizing of wealth and power; the vast combinations for the enriching of the few at the expense of the many; the combinations of the poorer classes for the defense of their interests and claims; the spirit of unrest, of riot and bloodshed; the world-wide dissemination of the same teachings that led to the French Revolution—all are tending to involve the whole world in a struggle similar to that which convulsed France. Such are the influences to be met by the youth of today. To stand amidst such upheavals they are now to lay the foundations of character. Education, page 228.

Thursday April 5th, 2018 at 06:58 AMExcellent article. In addition to the French Revolution it is also the method the Nazis used to justify their power grab during the 1930’s. The progressive movement of today is following the same pattern.
False science is one of the agencies that Satan used in the heavenly courts, and it is used by him today.
Conflict between False Science and Religion—I have been warned that henceforth we shall have a constant contest. Science, so-called, and religion will be placed in opposition to each other, because finite men do not comprehend the power and greatness of God. Ev-593

Saturday April 14th, 2018 at 11:54 AMHaha wow i wonder how these scientists are always trying to separate God from science while God is the creator of science too, you foolish scientists always trying to make God look like one of those cartoon gods where he says let there be light and it pops out from nowhere all bouncy and confused in a matter of seconds. Am not saying he can’t do things quickly but don’t forget we are talking about the boss of all bosses and bosses love to do things in the time they prefer and in the process they prefer, so as for God he said there be light and the beginning of everything we see today took its pace through the big bang or some other world making process that God knows, and everything perfectly lined itself up to make the beautiful colorful universe you see today, and if there was a slight hair of a mistake in the process of creation, we wouldn’t exist today, so am wondering how ”nothing” can do ”something” like that. You know what, God still creates until this very minute that’s why you scientist are always discovering new things in earth and out of space and even the smallest things like women giving birth, nothing ever happens for nothing, that i will say but as always with your pride and egos you always blame creations towards anything but just not God isn’t it. It kinda seems like you don’t wanna believe because you fear you will have to follow God’s laws and rules and be humble to avoid hell or something. You think God is moved if you small minded people said he doesn’t exist because haha your like a microbe to God and his literally being worshiped by higher beings, angels and arch angels who are mighty, great in knowledge than you will ever be, and strong and giants while you tiny scientists are made of dust, where you shall uselessly return. One archangel is enough to destroy the whole world in a few hours, yet is humble to the Immortal Everlasting God, so who are you to say he is not there. You know God knew this would happen and that’s why there are special verses specifically prepared for people like you where God expresses how foolish you are which is truly a fact haha.. I mean people who haven’t even discovered at least, just at least 10% of the world and you run out to space all nosy and over excited not even able to reach pluto yet you stand and disclaim God, haha wow this is sad yet interesting. Anyways it’s OK you scientists will all die in time and be forgotten with your certificates while God will still remain God, and yes let me have brain damage as you foolishly assume but at least my damage is worthwhile and for a mighty unstoppable eternal all powerful sovereign Great God King, Creator of everything.. including you scientist who rebuke him. Now that you feel good and excited when you say God doesn’t exist like you want some type of certificate and a lollipop for it, if you are crying for attention you should research and discover other things God has created and let us rejoice how big our God is, instead of putting your small minds and fidgeting in things that you will never understand because it will forever be beyond our reasoning, God gave us the bible which is enough to take us through this earthly life and provided enough wisdom to discover new things that will help us in life like technology, agriculture and many other discoveries but we should not suddenly forget God and suddenly start using wisdom to start disclaiming God’s existence, that is very wrong, unwise and very stupid indeed. God says look up into the heavens, that is how much his thoughts are beyond ours, yet we know when we look up we never see the end, so that should point out how dumb we are compared to God. another verse in the bible explains that the most intelligent man that can exist in the world with his highest IQ levels, to God that is just the beginning of God’s foolishness, just the beginning i say again. So. If you don’t believe in God just sit there with your certificates and keep quiet, God doesn’t care his busy with other more important things than to listen to your invalid blabbering spitting mouths..So ask yourself what are you to disclaim God, like who? Jesus Christ is the answer indeed, and thank you all for supporting and honoring our God, i know he doesn’t need supporting but at least let us show our love for him and how much we honor him. Keep it up guys. Am Elisha and i must answer for my God. Peace.
