Hmm …

… Scientists claim they can change your belief on immigrants and God | UK | News | Daily Express.

 Izuma said: "When we disrupted the brain region that usually helps detect and respond to threats, we saw a less negative, less ideologically motivated reaction to the critical author and his opinions."
Another example of a scientist who doesn't know how to think clearly, starting with the definition of terms. After all, one man's ideology is another's considered viewpoint. One could interpret these results as indicating nothing more than impeding the individual's ability to weigh evidence and arrive at a rational judgment. Maybe they should try it with atheists. Or do they not consider atheism an ideology? WWII Field Marshall Bernard Montgomery was terrified on his deathbed that he was going to have to explain to God why he gave an order that he knew would result in high casualties. Hardly an example of religion easing one's fear of death.
