Being told "God did it" to everything from a very early age is bound to stunt curiosity and brain development; especially if any sort of questioning is actively dissuaded. More liberal parents will at least allow some sort of science and analysis into the equation, whereas fundamentalists will be building a suspicion of it.

That seems likely to me as well. Indoctrination serves as a thought limiter much as binding the feet was a growth limiter for another kind of deformity.
