Jaynes' assumptions are made from the observation that schizophrenic patients cannot determine if the voices in their heads are real or products of brain malfunction. His theory is that the brain was initially much more seperated in earlier evolution than it is now and that the exixtence of two independent halves caused the dominant left side of the brain to "hear" the voice of God, which would not be interpretted any other way than that of reality, since the brain has not abilty to filter out stuff that originates within the matrix of the brain.
