Wow, I read a lot of american authors, funny I've only noticed this spelling now ... maybe pyjamas is a rare word .... ?
Have another story to share. So today in a neuro pharm class, prof told us that he had a friend who was very religious. So my prof asked his friend how he deals with the disconnect between science and his religion, namely the age of the earth (I think his friend is a scientist too). And his friend said: Monday to Friday I act according to your (science's) rules, and Saturday and Sunday I act according to mine.
Didn't make sense to me. Prof said that's how it should be for those students who wants to believe in a "soul" during the course, because we won't be dealing with it.
Actually it is quite uncomfortable to study neuroscience/psych if you're religious, because as you do so it becomes harder and harder to believe that there's this separate entity (a soul).
