Split brain with one half atheist and one half theist

Quote:Here’s a fascinating snippet from neurologist VS Ramachandran, talking about a split-brain patient. The patient’s right brain believed in God, but the more rational left brain was atheist.

Ramachandran points to the obvious theological problem of what, in the Christian view, happens to such a person after they die; does the right brain go to heaven and the left to hell?

The video of this extract is on the page.

Everyone has a left and right brain so maybe some agnostics really are in two minds about God. Tongue

what he means is that if you say "nothing" you are claiming to know more bullshit than if you say "this type of thing".

Agnostics understand the use of the scientific method in the context of science, while others can just spit the definition out their asshole.
