Abstract:
Human minds are great at coming up with ideas that help them make sense of the world, but those ideas do not always accord with official religious beliefs. Slone presents discoveries from the cognitive science of religion and shows how they help us to understand exactly why it is that religious people do and think things that they shouldn't.
