Left or Right...

I have wondered for years if there is a correlation between atheism and left or right hemispherical dominance in the brain. I am right brained, (and left handed) 11/5. You can take the test yourself to determine your dominant side.

I know the right brain is visually, emotionally, and creatively motivated and the left is logical, systematic, and mathamatical. I would like to know if there is a predominance of one side over the other in atheism.

This makes sense to me. I'm a terrible drawer, I can't improvise music at all and I frequently have a hard time sympathizing with people I think are wrong.

Hmm. I've gone more right brained. Perhaps that means I am becoming more well rounded... nah.
