“…(1) Specific supernatural enforcement, which refers to beliefs in the supernatural punishment of a small range of moral violations (e.g., stinginess), and admonished by spirits with lesser powers and lesser interest in morality than moralizing "big gods." Such beliefs appear recurrent in small-scale societies (Bendixen et al, 2021;Boehm, 2008;Purzycki et al, 2020;Singh et al, 2021;Townsend et al, 2020; see also Watts et al, 2015), where they seem to emerge in the middle of a religious ecology otherwise mostly centered on managing misfortune, rather than on promoting cooperation (Boyer, 2020;Singh et al, 2021). ( 2) Religions with moralizing "big gods" (or non-agentic forces): beliefs in supernatural entities that are centrally concerned with human morality, have a broader moral jurisdiction, and greater powers (e.g., afterlife retribution) (Norenzayan, 2013;Norenzayan et al, 2016).…”
