reviews on neurology and god

On the article of neurology and god, a consistent questioning on my part, "why do we care whether or not God exists? And why do so many people believe?" In my case as mainly as a photographer for many years, I am fascinated with also how humans perceive visions as their main judgement, and the fun toying with optical illustrations through different perceptions. Dr. Andrew Newberg, a pioneer in the field of neurotheology he is fascinated by the profound significance and persistence of human faith throughout history. A chemical that emits gamma rays were injected on the subjects having a trance, however, contrary to the myth that there will be vigorous movement in the brain, the opposite seemed to be true. Newbury believes that "their interaction with God is a shutting down of their concentrative, wilful attention in order to allow this experience of transcendence to happen." Interesting fact, but it still doesn't prove anything. The question then is whether the transcendent experience makes us better adapted to live and survive in this world or timeline. It is achieved through practice and strengthening connections in the brain around a particular idea or task. Like simple breathing deeply during stress allows you to destress and cope for what lies ahead.
