However, Modern medical research utilizing fMRI conduct brain scans has revealed that the prefrontal cerebrum is not responsible for lying. Other brain regions are responsible, particularly the anterior cingulate gyrus which lies in the medial part of the brain in the frontal-parietal area and not in the prefrontal cerebrum.

In addition to the dangerous arsenic levels, the holy water contained high levels of nitrate and potentially harmful bacteria. (read more)
