For what it's worth, a colleague and I are currently writing up a data set showing that among a sample of (mostly christian) undergraduates, IQ predicts biblical literalism and openness to religious change. Also, the effect is mediated by performance on elementary cognitive tasks (inspection time and reaction time).
The effects are small-- .30 or so, but interesting (at least to me).
