Oh dear, just because more than one spot lights up there isn't
a "centre"?! Can someone name =any= brain function or activity
that is localized to a single spot? To my mind, it doesn't make
sense to talk about centres for this or that function until we
at least define what we mean by "centre" in this context.
You're right. All this talk about centers is a bunch of horsecrap. It fits
in nicely with animism, though, and mainstream psychology, and the fields it
has corrupted, is just a "modern" form of animism.
