It is undebatable that Christians and Bible scholars accept the Bible as the uniting point for all – as a source and reference point. However, the approach to interpretation – how they see and read the Bible – divides them. The review of literalist and fundamentalist interpretative approaches based on their identifying tag reveals their convergent and divergent positions. This study shows that no particular hermeneutical “method” can guarantee a better understanding of and obedience to Holy Scripture. An openness of heart and a searching mind remain essential. Also, a large part of the Bible makes sense when read literally and it exercises control on the imagination.

Abstract. In this work, we investigated individual differences in cognitive reflection effects on delay discounting – a preference for smaller sooner over larger later payoff. People are claimed to prefer more these alternatives they considered first – so-called reference point – over the alternatives they considered later. Cognitive reflection affects the way individuals process information, with less reflective individuals relying predominantly on the first information they consider, thus, being more susceptible to reference points as compared to more reflective individuals. In Experiment 1, we confirmed that individuals who scored high on the Cognitive Reflection Test discount less strongly than less reflective individuals, but we also show that such individuals are less susceptible to imposed reference points. Experiment 2 replicated these findings additionally providing evidence that cognitive reflection predicts discounting strength and (in)dependency to reference points over and above individual difference in numeracy.
