What are people's views about the links drawn between Temporal Lobe Epilepsy and religious experience?

I came across this when studying Philosophy and wondered what people think of this. :happy2:

Please elaborate.

I think both can collerate

As in the link drawn between Temporal Lobe Epilepsy and it inducing a phenomenon that the individual concludes to be a religious experience.

[TigerStyleZ]

Scientifical sources?

Religion experience , and human experience? I don´t see any differnt in it. Because it is both same. We made up our conclusions in a rational system. We balance out the best for ourselves- thats why we humans think we are superiroity. The fact is it is a theory, and like every theory it can be falsificated.

No TigerStyleZ! Temporal Lobe Epilepsy and how people claim the condition to induce what amounts to be a religious experience!

Your totally off topic! :rolleyes2:

had a little read on this subject much of the science behind it went over my head any summary would be appreciated.

Seems that people who suffer from TLE are more suscepitble to visions and there is a high % of hyperreligousity and increased OCD. An article on it suggests that it may be the "god spot" which although interesting doesnt have any scientific backing!

but i would like to jab that spot see what happens lol!

LOL! Might cause a seizure :eyeroll:

Weird how scientists makes these claims without empirical evidence yet science is all about establishing cause and effect! :happy2:

Are u sure it's not media making the. Claims. Just because you can't state any empirical evidence does it mean none has been published? Have you searched all medical databases for journals on the topic?

No. Couldn't find anything specific.. Just based on a video that I watched in Philosophy.. hence why I posted on this forum, for others to provide an insight :happy2:
