There was a great series on National Public Radio this week about the neuroscience of spirituality. I'm going to post links to all 5 days. You can read about it and then play the pieces if you want. They're by Barbara Bradley Haggerty and each is 7 to 9 minutes.
1. Is there a God chemical? http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=104240746
2. Are Spiritual Encounters All in Your Head? http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=104291534
3. Prayer May Reshape Your Brain, and your Reality: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=104310443
4. Can Positive Thoughts Heal Another Person: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=104351710
5. Decoding the Mystery of Near Death Experiences: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=104397005
I would have liked to read about your thoughts/opinions about the broadcasts.
