Apple Causes Religious Reaction In Brains of Fans

satuon writes "In a recently screened BBC documentary called 'Secrets of the Superbrands', UK neuroscientists found that the brains of Apple fans are stimulated by images of Apple products in the same areas as those triggered by religious imagery in a person of faith. According to the scientists, this suggests that the big tech brands have harnessed, or exploit, the brain areas that have evolved to process religion."

Makes sense.

Since sodomites have no real religion, they cling onto any little material thing they can find for moral guidance.

That's not a troll. If one does not have a 'real' religion, they will create one. Religion, government, corporation, any kind of mysticism that exploits ignorance, all the same thing to bolster authority.. There's nothing particularly unusual about that.. SOP.. SNAFU

Oh dear! My comments are causing a religious reaction in the brains (yes, in medical terms, I have to admit they have one) of authoritarian mods

Of course. In reality (and seemingly confirmed by this study), this is no different than Religion vs Atheism.

Atheism is a "religion" as much as religions are religions...groups of fanatics vehemently spouting off their opinion of the nature of the universe, and not accepting the opinion of the other side.
