Interesting how the study on stereotypes showed worse performance with Christians who where told of Christian/ science conflicts before the test. I wonder if that is because they were reminded that they should answer questions as per certain expectations if they were to consider themselves “one of the tribe” as a “good Christian.” I wonder sometimes how honest we are with our answers, and if we answer polls to reflect what is expected rather than what is truly believed.
