Sorry if I'm annoying you Max, I don't tend to go looking for things that may upset or confuse me for one reason or another.
I found that article too but not much else. The only study I found which indicated that electromagnetism can affect morality was this one from 2010:

Quote:Previous studies have shown that a brain region known as the right temporo-parietal junction (TPJ) is highly active when we think about other people’s intentions, thoughts and beliefs. In the new study, the researchers disrupted activity in the right TPJ by inducing a current in the brain using a magnetic field applied to the scalp. They found that the subjects’ ability to make moral judgments that require an understanding of other people’s intentions — for example, a failed murder attempt — was impaired.One commenter noted: 'That magnets affect the organism, that's a triviality. EM fields can affect any human cognitive dynamics, of which moral judgment is just an example. Insistence of "neuroscience" upon the reduction of the organism to the brain, a single organ, is unscientific, a replication of a bad Cartesianism. Any judgment, by its nature, involves the whole organism, in relation with the environment/world, independently of the brain region mobilized at the moment.'
