GUEST,Sally Brown BS: Your Brain, Your Brain on God (392* d) RE: BS: Your Brain, Your Brain on God 20 Aug 11


I am a nidiot and an ucklehead. I was afraid I had killed a perfectly good thread. There is very little more enjoyable than a (useless) argument. need a new word (Here)
I will not interfere further, except to correct impressions regarding marfan. It is a body and mind thing. The researchers primarily look at the physical stuff, because it is easier to measure, and more deadly. There is still a major argument going on about how to diagnose it, and research is primarily being done with mice and sheep.
The IQ bell for marfan is higher than the bell for non-msrfan, and you will find, in your reading, many references to "different" thinking. Only recently have some tried to move it into the aspergers spectrum The very small and very early research will not be published I would guess for years.
Methinks it unproductive duality thinking to try to separate the body and the mind.
All the early "spiritual" teachings are about the breath. (inspire, respiration) Yoga and Tai Chi and Chigong still start with the breath. Meditation is about breathing and focus. It takes Western dualistic thought to try to separate out body mind and spirit, and affect one without the other. That sort of thing is about power, not religion. Mostly, I think, about male dominance of the military sort.
