Although I don't recall ever reading or hearing such stories, science have found no evidence of a specific brain area or part dedicated to religious thoughts or spirituality. There have been research on the subject as this NatGeo article, Your Brain on God, explores. According to the research described in the article, there is no single "God spot"; however, a Canadian neuroscientist, Mario Beauregard, "discovered that memories of a spiritual connection with God were accompanied by increased activity in the caudate nucleus, a small region that plays a role in learning, memory and developing feelings of love. But they had five other neural hot spots, including the insula, which monitors body sensations and governs social emotions."
