What are they scared of? That God is going to mark them down on those childhoods years? Or that if they don't program them early their kid won't believe all the mythology? No one needs to be indoctrinated to believe in mathematics or gravity. Or anything that has reason behind it.
I have 5 kids -- all indoctrinated so as not to grow up and be like you. You see, once you believe there is a God, all the rest makes sense and falls into place.
No. Things make sense and fall into place when our beliefs are aligned with the truth, and there is nothing demonstrably true about the claims of your religion.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
