Interesting Religious Related YouTube Channels

I ran across this channel today. It's run by a Muslim based in Pakistan. From what I've watched, he does a good job breaking down comparative religious topics. Several vids deal with LDS themes. I found it interesting, and perhaps some of you will too.

So this isn't a YouTube channel, but what the heck. I think it fits in the spirit of the thread.

This is an interesting study done at the U back in 2018. It may have been brought up before but I missed it. The researchers sought to identify the specific brain networks activated during spiritual experiences and wired up 19 RM's with fMRI while reading scriptures, praying, and watching conference talks. Self-reported spiritual feelings were associated with activation in the nucleus accumbens region of the brain, also known as the reward center. This activation occurred 1-3 seconds prior to the participants self-reported feeling the spirit. I uploaded the study to NotebookLM and it made this great infographic summary.
