Can sexual selection theory explain the evolution of individual and group-level religious beliefs and behaviors?
Although the scientific study of religion is predicated on the evolution of the human mind, sexual selection theory and mating strategies have received relatively little attention as an adaptive cognitive mechanism that influences religious belief and behavior. The empirical study of two hypotheses...
