About the Talk:
Religious indoctrination actually has a physical impact on your brain. Darrel will discuss three ways religion impacts us, two of which you have probably never considered or heard about. You will learn about the disgust and attachment systems as well as the limbic system. All combine to make it difficult to leave most religions.
