CONCEPT OF GOD

Recent survey among members of US National Academy of

Sciences, revealed that only 7% believed in the concept of
God. Now the scientists are convinced as per the recent
reports that the concept of God, is hardwired in to our brain,
and that we are created by pure evolution and not by any
divine intervention.

The earliest humans thought that stones are coming down

from a hill due to spirits. What cannot be understood is
attributed to some power, they called it, Spirit, or God.
Gradually over generations this concept got hardwired in to
our brain. This is like that of the bees whose brain is
hardwired to make hexagonal hives. Scientists have even
identified it as the left hemispherical temporal lobe and it is
now called 'the God part of brain'. This hardwiring has
occurred to avoid those things that represent a threat to our
existence. When humans became aware of the mortality, the
spirituality is an evolutionary adaptation that compels our
species to believe that though our physical body will one day
perish, our spirits or souls will persist for eternity. Only with
this false perception that something more is out there, we
were able to survive our debilitating awareness of death in
those primitive times. Here lies the origin of the God part of
the brain. Before the awareness of logic, reason etc, the
earlier human beings resembled the modern day
schizophrenics, as the ancient people heard voices, summed
up visions. Mentally disturbed and epileptic persons have
intense religious experience when they have such attacks. It
is not a charitable thought that most of the persons who
professed for God were actually mentally sick persons.
Epilepsy have long been noted to be associated with a
heightened sense of religiosity. After having one of the
epileptic attack, patients may actually speak of having had a
"religious experience. the brain activity of ancient people are
same as present day schizophrenics. The oldest temporal
lobe epilepsy case was that of Ezekiel, whose visions are
recorded in a book of the old testament which is about 2600
years back. Other symptoms are aggression,delusions and
pedantic speech. The Times, in UK, dated 21-12-01 reported
that a church of Ireland minister claims that Jesus was a
mentally unstable prophet of doom who wrongly thought
that the world was about to end. These persons have what is
called 'hypergraphia' or compulsory writing habit.
Mohammed even though illiterate dictated his thoughts to
create Quran. A study on 900 persons, when their left
temporal lobes were tickled, using computer generated
electromagnetic pulses their mind generated a sensed
presence of Gods their cultures have trained them to use. By
varying this EM pulses from 0 to 255 range, all types of
feelings that we experience was generated by a scientist in
Canada.

Also the praying in loud voices, that is common with the

concept of God, is due to the fact that this high frequency
above 90 dB, will induce a pleasure similar to sex, in the
brain, as it makes the sacculus in inner ear which we
inherited from our fishy ancestors, get a pleasurable buzz.

Brain is a biological computer consuming 25 watts and with

a raw computational power or 1013 to 1016 operations per
second uses 10 watts for computation. Religious/mystical
experience is strictly neurochemical in nature and as per
neurophysiologists, it is only an illusion or 'Maya' as we call
it. With Darwin's 'origin of species' and today's genetic and
scientific knowledge, it is time to move forward from the
concept of God. The latest theory of the origin of Universe
says that there is never an initial singularity, that is a point
where the curvature of space time become infinite and so
there was no first moment to time for a God create the
Universe. For thousands of years people believed that the
sun and the stars rotate around mankind. Pope and
Professors alike, thought that they were sitting motionless
inside this crystal ball, but now we are breaking out of these
ideas. Earth was formed about 4.5 billion years ago and
recently probing a tiny grain of zircon, scientists have
evidence that about 4.4 billion years ago, i.e., just after 100
million years later the earth was formed, the temperature
had cooled to about 100 degree C range, creating conditions
for the formation of life.

Dr. George Cody's team of Geophysicists,from Washington,

have found that the reaction that occur in the vicinity of
deep ocean hydro-thermal vents, when iron sulphide is
subjected to extreme temperature and pressure, formed
organomettallic compounds, similar to those present in the
active centers of certain metabolic enzymes of living
organisms, as well as pyruvic acid which is an energetic
three carbon molecule that is critical to central metabolism
in all life.There is nothing special about biology. Life may
arise from the same set of organising principles that
determine the arrangement of atoms or electrons in
materials with unusual properties. This is called the world of
'Complex Adaptive Matter'. We know very little about how
organisation and assembly arises in nature. Unexpected
properties emerge from biological system, for e.g., the way
cell membrane form, but nobody knows where such self
organisation comes from. Objects ranging from a few
nanometer to a tenth of a micrometer show special
properties, that do not occur on microscopic or macroscopic
scales. At this size threshold, adding more particle make the
material not just bigger, but entirely different. Groups of
hundred to thousands of particles-dumb, inanimate matter, -
suddenly begin to organize themselves in to patterns, that
make them capable of responding to their surroundings. This
self organisation will be the thrust of science in the 21st
century. This self organisation eventually leads to the
emergence of life itself as per the Nobel prize winning
Physicist 'Robert Laughlin' of Stanford University, California.
They have even laid down some of the assembly principle
that seems to apply to both living and inanimate matter and
the first principle is called 'frustration'

Life could be there is as many as a million places per galaxy.

The biochemical process of life form are incredibly complex
and the argument that it is so complex that god has created
that complexity is the argument put forward by all. God by
definition is a conscious being, the consciousness itself is an
incredibly complex phenomenon. Consciousness requires the
ability to store, access information, that is linked together in
many intricate ways as well as the ability to process the
information and to reason. For an omniscient being, even a
super super super computer will not be sufficient to process
the information. For a god that is fundamentally complex, if
it is evolved from other simple being we would conclude that
it was not god, but an alien life form. God if he exists must
be radiation resistant and able to withstand the vacuum of
the space as he is not living on earth, and would be
extremely complex, that this implies the the existence of god
is extremely impossible.
