Abstract
The main topic of the study is the implicit bias towards hidden religious narratives. The great
social and historical significance of religion is a surprise to no one. Religion is Macro-cultural
factor and one of the strongest institutions in the world. It has a great influence on people lives.
However, besides its disclosed power, religion has the influence we are unaware of. We live in a
world where the hidden religious narratives are scattered in our everyday life. Our
consciousness cannot grasp the religious themes in them but nevertheless, they should have an
influence on our decisions, opinions, on our taste and etc. These influences are Unconscious and
the main goal of this study is to reveal this phenomenon by using thematic analysis and explain
it as much as possible. As a result of the research, We tried to explain the effect of Implicit bias
in human cognition. In this research, we used 2 pieces of written narratives. One had hidden
religious themes and cultural markers in it and the other – hidden political and economic
themes and cultural markers. Participants had to choose between them which one they liked
over the other. After that, participants were interviewed and collected data were analyzed using
the thematic analysis. Out of 15 participants, 7 chose the religious narratives and analyzes
showed, that the main reason for their choice was cultural religious markers and the
participants' implicit bias towards them.
