On Sam Harris and Mother-in-Laws: False propositions may actually disgust us

As a Baha'i, I am taught / I believe two key concepts:

1. Statements must be validated by my own independent investigation, and
2. Faith and Science must agree. ...

What really smacked me around about this article, though, was the quote that said "false propositions may actually disgust us."

This is a great post of commentary on:

1. "What Your Brain Looks Like on Faith" in TIME/CNN online, and
2. The blogger's Mother-in-Law [MiL]
