Simulation to answer the puzzling questions about religion
Scientists have harnessed the power of'the Beast' to answer some of the most baffling questions about religion. The custom-built computer has developed a simulated virtual human mind capable of creating the impacts of terror on behavior - with the hopes of uncovering the truth behind why people become radicalized. The model had revealed that religious ritual observance would increase after terror-inspiring events drove people beyond a certain threshold of fear. Researches at Boston University first designed a computer simulation that predicts how many people would stay in a religion based on its strictness. It was then compared with defection rates from 18 Christian denominations.
