"...Anthony C. Grayling, M.A., D.Phil (Oxon), asserts that "mental phenomena are causally determined, which means that we have no free will." "
"Another eminent neuroscientist, Dr. Susan Greenfield, states that "neuroscience can explain everything about ourselves ..... Religious experiences are due to temporal lobe stimulation. Our brain tells us what to do, not the other way round. What we see isn't really there at all." "
From Thomas Szasz's "The Meaning of Mind: Language, Morality and Neuroscience", 1996, 2002.
Hopefully, these two quotes seem ridiculous.
They are just two examples of the folly that the contemporary belief in "neuroscience" can lead to. This belief is not really based on any substantial new discoveries.
