.... scientists simultaneously discover through extensive research that the above picture is an example of courage and bravery. If you can't accept that, you are a bigot and you hate science.

The findings suggest that damage to particular areas of the prefrontal cortex indirectly promotes religious fundamentalism by diminishing cognitive flexibility and openness—a psychology term that describes a personality trait which involves dimensions like curiosity, creativity, and open-mindedness.

Which is weird, cause most of the nasa OGs grandpa introduced me to were outside of st catherines church in titusville. I can't think of more curious, creative, open-minded people than those who invented space travel.

So you're saying absolute brilliant men like C.S. Lewis were brain damaged? Sweet science, bro.

So the polar opposites and centuries old enemies of religious fundamentalists have conducted a study with the purpose of linking a defective condition with them?

Never could have predicted this.

Religious fundamentalism refers to an ideology that emphasizes traditional religious texts and rituals and discourages progressive thinking about religion and social issues.

Sounds like orthodox Christianity, to me. Apparently billions of people throughout history suffered from specific brain damage.

The study doesn't pass the smell test.

Science is Sorcery! Looking at a photograph is Idolatry! The highest "holiday" is the Church of Satan IS YOUR OWN BIRTHDAY !!!!!

ps The last one is true.
