It looks like another one of those sincere efforts to prove that people who have different worldviews from the authors are just stupid.
And people love to vote up those papers because they assume that it scientifically proves their belief system is the correct one and the other guys are just dumb.
I'm an atheist and my twin brother is very religious. Worldviews come from the information streams you are subject to and also from the groups you are in.
Just because it was published doesn't mean it's not absolute nonsense.

I don’t think being cynical about other people’s motives really helps us understand human behavior.
