Believing or Not Implies Being Together or Not: Understanding the Religion-Oneness Relationship in Body, Mind, Behavior, and Culture
The role of religion on prosociality may be limited and conditional; but we argue and show that its role on interconnectedness and oneness is clear and attestable at all levels, from the body experience to (sub)culture, through cognitions, feelings, and behavior. Inversely, unbelief implies low interconnectedness and thus some prejudice.
