Come on, we all know that religion could not possibly survive without children to target. If you read the bible to 1000 adults who had been taught only facts throughout their lives, what percentage do you think would buy into it?
Without critical thinking skills?... 100%
Facts are no different from nonsense for a person who can't distinguish between the two.
