Split brain with one half atheist and one half theist

Nothing like a bit of Ramachandran on a Sunday evening...
wonderful stuff...
The right hemisphere has greater access to reality including what we conceptually differentiate as physical and spiritual - it feels the greater energetic reality, the 'presence', sometimes described as God.

By the way this talk appears to contradict itself - Ramachandran says the right hemisphere said yes to God then he describes right hemisphere as being atheist, hat leads to some interesting thoughts

I feel compelled to add that the belief or not in God is a left hemisphere stance whilst the experience of that greater reality sometimes labelled God by the left hemisphere is something else.
