• How Gullible are We? A Review of the Evidence from Psychology and Social Science (2017, background): “…many members of society nominally dominated by world religions only accept these religious beliefs partially, endorsing innocuous ones—often in the superficial form of “theological correctness” (Barrett, 1999; Slone, 2007), transforming others, rejecting those that would lead to costly behaviors.”
• The science of religious beliefs (2008, background): “…maturationally unnatural beliefs may come to exist alongside of, rather than replace, maturationally natural beliefs, meaning that even for individuals with training in a religious tradition maturationally natural beliefs may still guide their reasoning and behaviour (Barrett, 1999; Slone, 2004).”
