Horizon: Report on claims that belief in God may be due to the physical make-up of the brain : and that religious figures such as Moses and St Paul may have suffered from an unusual disorder known as temporal lobe epilepsy. Dr Michael Persinger claims he can induce religious experiences simply by stimulating the temporal lobe, and this programme gives him the chance to test his theory : on devout atheist Richard Dawkins.
