I'd like to see how the brain activity of people reading the article compares across religions. Do Skeptics become more or less skeptical when presented with a claim that seems to reflect negatively on religion? Are Christians more or less likely to be skeptical when reading the same claim?

What's the actual phenomenon being measured here? Is it a shutting down of skepticism due to prayer, or due to trust, or something else?
