It often occurs to me that if, against all odds, there is a judgmental God and heaven, it will come to pass that when the pearly gates open, those who had the valor to think for themselves will be escorted to the head of the line, GOD garlanded, and given their own personal audience.” —Edward O.

I hope that the candle you’ve lit in the vast darkness will burn as bright as the sun.” —John Emerson, PhD “The best in its field…brilliant.” —Noe Zamel, MD, FRCPC “Mr. Alper has written an extremely readable and comprehensive analysis of the physiological basis of religiosity…comparable to Freud’s Future of an Illusion in its contribution to the continuing maturation of the human mind. I am using The “God” Part of the Brain to teach a Sociology of Religion course with remarkable results.” —William Dusenberry, PhD “I greatly appreciated The “God” Part of the Brain as it so nicely summarized and integrated much of the work being done in this field.” —Andrew Newberg, MD, PhD, author of Why God Won’t Go Away GodPart_INT_PB:Layout 1 7/7/08 11:01 AM Page iv “Matthew Alper is high maintenance. Not only is his intellect superior to most PhD candidates that I know, but his intensity in displaying that intellect and arguing his world view is more compelling than many of my grad school courses. So, here I am, fiercely advocating this unconventional, first-time author who, with one slim book, has thrown hundreds of years of human religious beliefs out the window and replaced them with a concise scientific view of spirituality that is impossible to argue with. The brain is the secret. In our brains lie nature’s survival mechanisms in which God is nothing but a protective lens through which human- ity is ‘programmed’ to view the world. Matthew Alper has the chutzpah to remove that lens, to crush it under his heel, and then, as we cringe in the unfiltered light, he dares us to look up and stare into the pure scientific truth he has discovered. The “God” Part of the Brain is a challenge at first, but once you open your mind to the potentials of its theories, there is nothing to do but fol- low its arguments to their logical conclusions. And although he rips away our old stiff crutches, this auda- cious philosopher is kind enough to spoon-feed us a new and positive way to approaching our existences.” —Rebecca Morris, Editor-in-Chief, Cardozo Law Journal GodPart_INT_PB:Layout 1 7/7/08 11:01 AM Page v “GODThe ” Part Brainof the GodPart_INT_PB:Layout 1 7/7/08 11:01 AM Page vi GodPart_INT_PB:Layout 1 7/7/08 11:01 AM Page vii “GODThe ” Part Brainof the A Scientific Interpretation of Human Spirituality and God Matthew Alper GodPart_INT_PB:Layout 1 7/7/08 11:01 AM Page viii Copyright © 2006, 2008 by Matthew Alper Cover and internal design © 2006, 2008 by Sourcebooks, Inc.

  • Appendix 1 the World of Cinema in Argentina
    Appendix 1 The World of Cinema in Argentina A revelation on January 17, 2002. I am headed to the Citibank on Cabildo Street, where I have a savings account. I try to enter the bank but cannot because of the number of people waiting. So I give up on my errand. I cross the street to return home, and from the sidewalk facing the bank I see, for the first time, the building in which it is housed. The familiar is made strange; shortly after, it becomes familiar again, but in a slightly disturbing way. I recognize the building’s arches and moldings, its fanciful rococo façade. I recognize the Cabildo movie theater, in which I saw so many movies as an adolescent. Although I have been coming to this bank for years, I have never before made this connection. I know movie theaters that have been transformed into video arcades, into evangelical churches,1 into parking garages, even into bookstores. Yet I knew of none that had become a bank. All my savings were housed in a space that had been shadows, lights, images, sounds, seats, a screen, film. I remember that around the age of sixteen, I saw Robert Redford’s Ordinary People (1980) on the same day as Alain Resnais’ Last Year at Marienbad (1961) in the Hebraica theater. Two or three movies a day (video didn’t exist then) in which almost everything was film, film, and only film. These are the adolescent years in which cinephilia is born: a messy love, passionate, without much judgment.

  • The Demon Haunted World
    THE DEMON- HAUNTED WORLD Science as a Candle in the Dark CARL SAGAN BALLANTINE BOOKS • NEW YORK Preface MY TEACHERS It was a blustery fall day in 1939. In the streets outside the apartment building, fallen leaves were swirling in little whirlwinds, each with a life of its own. It was good to be inside and warm and safe, with my mother preparing dinner in the next room. In our apartment there were no older kids who picked on you for no reason. Just the week be- fore, I had been in a fight—I can't remember, after all these years, who it was with; maybe it was Snoony Agata from the third floor— and, after a wild swing, I found I had put my fist through the plate glass window of Schechter's drug store. Mr. Schechter was solicitous: "It's all right, I'm insured," he said as he put some unbelievably painful antiseptic on my wrist. My mother took me to the doctor whose office was on the ground floor of our building. With a pair of tweezers, he pulled out a fragment of glass. Using needle and thread, he sewed two stitches. "Two stitches!" my father had repeated later that night. He knew about stitches, because he was a cutter in the garment industry; his job was to use a very scary power saw to cut out patterns—backs, say, or sleeves for ladies' coats and suits—from an enormous stack of cloth. Then the patterns were conveyed to endless rows of women sitting at sewing machines.
