Introduction

With the powerful medical tools now available, far more is being discovered about how things really work in people's brains.

One study in Science found people are less able to reject unfair offers when magnetic fields "disrupt" the right dorsolateral prefontal cortex. According to a summary in ScienceNow, other "... scientists say they have captured glossolalia [speaking in tongues] on brain scans, which link decreased frontal lobe activity to a loss of self control."

These kinds of results are strong support for those who link consciousness, intentionality, and judgement to particular brain locations and processes.
