MANIPULATION- KEY WORD Thanks for the candid exposure

@AaronHubler Thank you for your kind words. If you read The God Virus, you will find that I have discussed some of the ideas you mention though there is much to explore for sure. Also, take a look at our Sex and Secularism report at ipcpress.com and the video on my recent lecture about the report. It is in this play list.

I love your videos so much! You should do a whole book just on the psychology / neuroscience in church services. From the crowd psychology, to the euphoric feeling people attribute to being "god's presence" , to the music, to the youth group conventions for teenagers with rock band type of music on the stage etc. It's amazing.

This man speaks my words for me. I have always said that the brain is the most complexed and can be manipulated.

@dizoda some of the most influential persons in history were also not Christian, eg. Ghandi, Einstein. Some of the most evil persons in history were Christian, eg, Torqmada the head of the Inquisition, Hitler who professed his deep faith in Mein Kampf and has never been excommunicated. Religious people tend to cherry pick history to make their particular religion look best. Schindler was an atheist, but certainly did more than almost any Christian to save Jews in WWII.

@oneness978 hahahaha. As a child, I spent 17 years with a speech disorder because my family wanted saints to cure me instead of a speech therapist.

@oneness978 Your best friend was cured by the intervention of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, now prove me wrong. When you learn what the meaning of critical thought is, you will be well on your way to understanding the scientific method, until then you will continue to believe in demons, gods, angels and other invisible friends and enemies just as your Jesus god did. Study the Flying Spaghetti monster to understand real miracles.

@damon132 "Funny how all those religious people go to the doctor rather than a minister or priest." Really??? Then tell me why, being religious (as you non-believers call us), I have a family doctor and an optometrist. You're making judgements without critical thought. So for you to so ignorantly and arrogantly presume that ALL Christians initially (or only) see a minister/excorcist show's how selectively perceptive you are. And for your information, my best friend was miraculously cured. =p
oneness978 (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
@damon132 Hahaha, no one said anything about "demons causing illnesses." There's no indication in the Bible that EVERY disease is caused by demons. You can't possibly explain every case where doctor's and scientists were baffled at a patient's miraculous recovery from a fatal diagnosed disease, LOGICALLY, right??? If you can then bring every one of those, MIRACULOUS, cases out in the open and scientifically explain how the patients fully recovered.
damon132 (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
@oneness978 I live in the real world where science cures illnesses and diagnoses diseases, etc. Demons don't cause illnesses as your Jesus god seems to think. People don't get miraculously cured by the holy spirit god or the Mary god. Funny how all those religious people go to the doctor rather than a minister or priest. If prayer healed anyone, it would have done so during the plague or any other disease of the middle ages. I am betting you go to a doctor rather than an exorcist.
