My Errors? No Big Deal. Your Errors? Whoa, Baby: You Gotta Have A Talk With The Lord!

"We found that religious people or even people who simply believe in the existence of God show significantly less brain activity in relation to their own errors."
-- Michael Inzlicht, assistant psychology professor at the University of Toronto, in a story trying to sell the idea that "a belief in God plays a positive role in the treatment of anxiety and depression" - when what they're really saying is, without a thumbsucker to ease their troubled minds, delusional types are more scared and unstable - leading me to think the "significantly less brain activity" claim is true, especially if they can't even fake it for The Washington Times.
