Re: when mythology researchers attempt animal behavior research...
There was a interesting Article in I think Newsweek last summer about what happens to the brain during " religious" experiences.
Subjects such as Buddist monks and people who pray had PET scans which did show areas of the brain in different states. The proponants of the spirit world used this data to suggest the spirit world has a physical effect on humans, while skeptics responded by saying the effects of spiritual experiances has its roots in physiological changes in the brain. And so the debate continues. I will later see if i can find the Article to post.
