A short response to “Ability to gain religious experiences as a part of cognitive abilities” [in English] (original) (raw)

The response critically engages with Sayadmansour's article on neurotheology, emphasizing the need for a clearer definition and boundaries of this emerging field. It highlights the complexity of religious experiences, suggesting they may stem from the brain's capabilities shaped by evolution rather than being purely neurophysiologic. The author advocates for a balanced approach in understanding the relationship between neurological processes and spiritual experiences, encouraging future scholarship to explore both dimensions.
