Your Brain on Religion

Why do we believe what we believe? Are the brains of atheists and religious people different? What happens to a person's brain when they are praying or meditating or communing with God? Andrew Newberg has been studying these questions for years. He calls it Neurotheology, a discipline that "seeks to understand the relationship specifically between the brain and theology." He joins Steve Paikin to discuss the neuroscience of religion.
