Study says conservatives and liberals have differences in their brain chemistry
Quote:A new study says conservatives and liberals have differences in their brain chemistry.

If you've staked out a spot on either side of the "red" versus "blue" ideological divide, you probably already suspected this. But now, researchers say they have demonstrated actual neurological differences between the brains of liberals and conservatives.

According to the Sacramento Bee, scientists at New York University have discovered that those on opposite sides of the political fence use different parts of their brains when making instant decisions...

Hey, I could have told them that. Conservatives do not excel (very apparent, IMO) at critical thinking! Why else would Republicans elect actors and dilettantes? Big Grin

A few facts:

~A majority of persons classified as geniuses are liberals
~Creative persons, liberals and geniuses commit suicide at a higher rate than others
