Why do we humans generate religious ideas? Why are they such recurrent features of the human mind? More importantly, why do supernatural beliefs have such profound influence on our behavior?

J. Anderson Thomson, Jr., M.D, and Clare Aukofer answer these profound questions and more in their newly released book, Why We Believe In God(s). In it, Thomson and Aukofer use cutting-edge psychology and neuroscience to explain how religious ideas and beliefs attempt to infiltrate your mind.
