Faith and spirituality have shaped human civilization for thousands of years. But science now asks: where does the sense of God or sacred presence truly come from?
McKinney’s exploration of neurotheology—the study of how the brain generates religious and spiritual experiences—offers a powerful lens. Rather than dismissing faith as illusion, it suggests that the brain is wired to seek transcendence, meaning, and unity.
This intersection of science and spirituality opens a new dialogue: instead of science versus religion, we see science revealing the very architecture that allows us to experience the divine.
