Has there been any research into a developmental disability disorder that makes people remain Christian?

Answer 1

You might get a more intelligent and serious answer in the psychology section, I think you'll only get offended sheep here.
There are alot of reasons why people believe in religious stuff.
I think mostly exposure through family and peers, at an early age and continuously throughout their life, and also pressure from society, family, and peers through fear of various things ranging from fear of going to an imaginary hell to fear of being ostracized, etc..
There are plenty of other psychological reasons and processes going on, but I don't think we'll be getting to the bottom of the real reasons why people believe these things anytime soon. At this point in time, these people are a majority, and there is a prejudice in our scientific community, and everywhere else, about religious beliefs. Half of the dictionary, encyclopedia, and even medical diagnostic books, etc., don't yet identify religious belief and its related actions as delusional, schizophrenic, etc., when they so obviously fit some of the definitions given for these and other conditions. Some of these even specifically exclude religious beliefs from the definition IN the definition.
Example:
"People who exhibit this behavior and do these things and believe this stuff are nuts...Oh, uh, I mean EXCEPT for my religious brothers. We aren't messed up because these things are true and god is real, so we're O.K., but everyone else, who has the EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS, is schizophrenic and will be diagnosed as such..."
-If we don't get past this, we may never be able to really understand, and possibly even treat, these threats to the survival of the human species we call "religious beliefs"...

Answer 2

No, but it has been demonstrated that certain parts of the brain are damaged in atheists.

So, will you research the developmental disability disorder that makes people atheists?

(Good grief! Talk about picking at straws! Didn't you have enough straw to tear down a complete straw man?)

Answer 3

I don't think it has anything to do with developmental disabilities and that's an insult to people who actually have them. Not nice at all. Me: Buddhist

Answer 4

For such a renowned biologist, Richard Dawkins doesn't know a whole lot about the human brain to propose that belief in a God is a disease.

Answer 5

Sorry pumpkin yet i can't stick on your questioning. there is no one there who states they are feminist. you may desire to positioned that tin foil hat back on and you will supply up seeing boogey-feminists in the closet and in the back of bushes. for somebody who imagined to have a medical degree (lol) you have unquestionably have been given shot down some pegs in case you're nonetheless working on your GED. sturdy for you everybody might desire to have a severe college degree. it relatively is in all probability purely yet another one in each and every of your many money owed.

Answer 6

I don't even think that is funny.
I know a lot of ppl with all sorts of disabilities and they are not Christian. ;)

Answer 7

No.

I wonder when they will make progress into the disorder that makes people unable to resist the urge to make childish insulting remarks.

Answer 8

well, there HAS been speculation that religion may be caused by an airbourne virus or a water dwelling brain fluke that causes those affected to hallucinate and lose the capacity for logical and rational thought......... :-)

Answer 9

Not that I'm aware of, and I doubt there ever will be.

You see how ridiculous Christians get about a movie that sends an atheistic message. Imagine how pissed off they'd be about that.

Answer 10

So, since I'm now Atheist, does that mean that I overcame my disability? Sweet.
