Is this the beginning of scientific evidence that there is no God?

The part about religious statements activating the parts of the brain that control social behavior blew my mind. Isn't it amazing that someone was able to think that experiment up in the first place?

Beginning? The evidence has been around for since the time we evolved the ability to observe it. What is the evidence? Reality. Evolution explains how we got there, Chemistry describes the intneraction between everything, physics, etc. Once someone has a general understanding of all of the sciences and basic reason and common sense they will realize that man created god. I realized it on simble logic and common sense in which religion failed miserably. I then questioned existence until I realized that evolution was true. Once I understood evolution and what it encompasses I realized that I understood everything that was possible to understand. People that believe in God are either so brainwashed they are delusional, in complete denial fueled by ignorance, uneducated and living in a 3rd world country where life is simple and knowledge is limited.

If you bombard a person with enough facts eventually they will get unconscious doubts that probably will evolve into fear. They will then defend their beliefs even more and seek a shield behind ignorance and logical fallacies.

No.

According to the article itself, the beginning was around 1940.

But, since it took a long time to get from

"That shiny thing up there is the great god Ra!"

to

"That shiny thing up there is a nuclear furnace.", it shouldn't be surprising if it takes a few more centuries for people to stop saying that when tornado knocks down two houses on the same street, it was God "punishing" the atheist, but "testing" the Christian.

Have a reasonably reasonable day.

The authors of that article, J. Anderson Thomson and Clare Aukofer, recently published a book entitled "why we believe in god(s): a concise guide to the science of faith." It is available through any of the online book sites.

We have circuits in our brain which are responsible for sight.

And they were put there purely for their survival value.

Therefore we shouldn't believe a thing we see.

Impeccable logic, don't you think?

Science isn't out to prove or disprove god. It stays out of the supernatural realms, for good reason.

God has nothing to do with science and in general is just ignored.

I think that the abiogenesis experiment was pretty much it for religion.

that was like... 30-40 years ago...

Its just a fancy version of what is commonly espoused here every day. But no more based in fact or reality.

I think that science is doing that more or less since science really started off actually.
