I think that the notion of a mind apart from the brain is a religious notion (using the term religious VERY broadly) and not a scientific notion. I could be worng, of course, which is why I asked the quesiton.

I guess the relevance of which word you choose has to do with how it was used in the pamphlet and by Indy. The phrase :
Quote:

Sexuality of any type is all in a person's mind, so why should homosexuality be any different?

Contrary to what we often see on this site, the connotation of the word mind is very different than brain. Minds can be changed. Is this also true for involuntary brain function?
Indy came off as flippant. He may not have intended it but by saying "Sexuality of any type is ALL in a person's mind" he comes across that way.
