This post almost gave me cancer.
“The living being had no need of eyes because there was nothing outside of him to be seen; nor of ears because there was nothing to be heard; and there was no surrounding atmosphere to be breathed; nor would there have been any use of organs by the help of which he might receive his food or get rid of what he had already digested, since there was nothing which went from him or came into him: for there was nothing beside him. Of design he created thus; his own waste providing his own food, and all that he did or suffered taking place in and by himself. For the Creator conceived that a being which was self-sufficient would be far more excellent than one which lacked anything; and, as he had no need to take anything or defend himself against any one, the Creator did not think it necessary to bestow upon him hands: nor had he any need of feet, nor of the whole apparatus of walking; but the movement suited to his spherical form which was designed by him, being of all the seven that which is most appropriate to mind and intelligence; and he was made to move in the same manner and on the same spot, within his own limits revolving in a circle. All the other six motions were taken away from him, and he was made not to partake of their deviations. And as this circular movement required no feet, the universe was created without legs and without feet.” -Plato

Re: A Magnetic Field Applied to the Brain Can Alter People's Sense of Morality
This is just more "morality is relative" bullshittery.

TPTB want malleable citizens whose moral compass changes with the winds. When you succumb to this type of bullshittery, nothing is of any value anymore.

I agree with previous posters who state that true morality is more than just chemical neurons and synapses. It's immortal through your faith in God.

Lol, did you actually managed to get the 3 statements of your post wrong?

TPTB control people like you with written moral codes (aka all religions).

Please tell me more fascinating stories about how the one you were forced into since you were a kid, the one that your surrounding environment believes, is the 'true' faith and you are going to heaven.

Re: A Magnetic Field Applied to the Brain Can Alter People's Sense of Morality
MIT scientists have shown that they can alter our moral judgments simply by magnetically interfering with a certain part of the brain.

Studies have shown that the right temporo-parietal junction (TPJ) lights up with activity when we engage in moral judgments like evaluating the intentions of another person, indicating the region is important to making moral decisions. But while we like to think we're very consistent in our morality, the MIT team showed that an electromagnetic field applied to the scalp impairs our ability to evaluate the intentions of others, leaving us with little by which to hand down a moral judgment.

By your logic (morality is not relative), you are basically saying that as long as you have faith in god, the 'moral compass' will be on the right direction.

Then you say that others (parents and friends) have another sense of morality (just like everyone on the planet), admitting that morality is relative?

Do you want me to take you serious when you disagree with yourself?

You're always free to choose. This is theory only, about magnetic fields altering 'morality'. I frankly don't buy it. In any case, God's spirit can overcome any and all natural and artificial influences, so those who are strong in faith will not waver in knowing right from wrong.
