You can use magnets to shut off people’s belief in God. Researchers did a study in 2015 where they zapped the threat detection centres in people's brains with electromagnetic tools. This brain area is called the posterior medial frontal cortex. Here’s a picture:

The pMFC’s job is to scan reality to find oddities, anomalies, and threats. It has the executive power to recruit other parts of your brain to go and solve these problems. It is the great eye of Sauron scanning the world for danger. It is always on guard and highly suspicious of everything. It makes you wary of foreigners. It is racist. In the wild forests this makes sense: strangers mean danger. But why does it influence your belief in God?
This piece looks at several strange phenomena like these magnet experiments to get a better understanding of atheism, the woke movement, and the Death of God:
