This book deserves its own thread because it answers many of our questions...a step outside of ourselves...

The God part of the brain by Matthew Alper

is this coming in connection with the bit of the thread somewhere else, where we discussed god as part of the brain, and that being why we only used 20%.

Yes...it fits that well. But I think its a bit deeper than that. I just want for the theologians to see the other side. As soon as I find a good book stating the possibility of spirit as a reality I'll post that to for the atheists. All good and healthy even if it means creating a mucky mess

It may well be true that we can find a part in the brain that is wired to reach out to a god of some sort. The Bible does say that "we have eternity set in our hearts". Does this book though answer the question why we are made this way?

Do the fundamental questions of life get answered from this? Where did we come from? Why are we here and where will we go when we die?

Every human being searches for an answer to these questions.

some of the quote from readers are staggering :

quote:

I feel more peaceful and positive now.



What happens when he wakes up and finds that he still has the same unanswered questions?

quote:

Defines in a clear and concise manner what each of us already knew but were afraid to admit and exclaim. The cats out of the bag.



The answers to these questions cannot be found in the human mind!

and did heyjme claim that it would answer those questions?
and have you read it? may it does answer those questions, it cannot do so fully, but mayb it gives a better idea than any other source.

If it defines what we all already kne, then all it does is sorts our thoughts into a more rational pattern, which would make you more peaceful, you still have the same questions, but you can see what the gaps you need filling are, and mayb see why some of your questions are irrelevant.
