Excellent point! Believe it or not, some would argue “yes.”

There is an absolute pandemic of lousy cause-effect reasoning in science articles of the last generation. That is, there is an endless flow of articles that properly and scientifically observe a correlation between A and B, and then, without any evidence presume that "therefore" A causes B. When it could just as easily be B that causes A, or another factor, C, that is causing both A and B.

In this context, the fact that certain parts of our brain are involved in certain mental processes associated with 'religious' topics proves basically nothing. The Romans 1 reference is an apt one in any case. (Interesting, a few years ago some atheists at a summer camp for atheistic indoctrination claimed directly the opposite, contrary to this and other scientific evidence, such as a Japanese study that found that children in that non-monotheistic nation instinctively cited God as a creator when questioned on the subject.)

Console yourself, though, with the thought that they don't really exist. ;)
