Art Bell welcomes Matthew Alper , author of The God Part of the Brain, to revisit his theory that human beings are neurologically hardwired for spiritual belief. Alper argues that every known culture, without exception, has believed in some form of spiritual reality, suggesting a genetic basis for religiosity rooted in the brain's need to cope with awareness of mortality. He explains the bell curve of spiritual capacity, placing zealots on one extreme and the spiritually tone-deaf, including him...

Art Bell welcomes Professor Bart Kosko , electrical engineer at the University of Southern California, to discuss whether the threat of terrorism has been grossly overestimated. Kosko argues that three years without a major attack on U.S. soil represents significant negative evidence, and that resources diverted to counterterrorism may be disproportionate to the actual risk, especially as the falling dollar poses a more immediate economic danger. The conversation shifts to nanotechnology and its...

Art Bell speaks with attorney and researcher Matt Savinar about the concept of peak oil and its potentially catastrophic implications for modern civilization. Savinar explains that global oil production follows a bell curve, and once the halfway depletion point is reached, declining output collides with an economic system built on perpetual growth, triggering financial collapse. Savinar argues that no combination of alternative energy sources, including wind, solar, hydrogen, or ethanol, can be ...
