El asiento del alma

Cristianos Torturados II

Para los que no se imaginaban que iba en serio la noticia de que la universidad de Oxford crea un centro de investigacion que torturara cristianos para investigar sobre el dolor y la experiencia religiosa, ahi va la noticia en la pagina web de la propia universidad: Oxford Centre for Science of the Mind will examine what belief does to our brains.

"... The Centre, which will be led by Oxford neuroscientist Baroness Susan Greenfield, will bring together neuroscientists, philosophers and theologians to ask such questions as how belief physically affects our brains, how religious faith affects experiences such as pain, whether there is a detectable physical difference in the brain between religious and secular faith, and ultimately how the collection of physical matter making up our brains can generate consciousness..."

"... One of the first projects to be undertaken will be an investigation into whether people cope with pain differently depending on their faith, using volunteers who will have a small amount of chilli gel applied to the back of their hand and will be asked about their response to the sensation, whilst having their brain activity monitored... "

Bueno, ahora nos podemos quedar mas tranquilos. Solo sera un poco de gel de chile. Vamos, yo no me lo acercaria a ninguna parte de mi cuerpo, pero vamos, con un poco de fe seguro que se alivia.
