Does anybody else feel sorry for religious people?

I've hammered out that point before, where I was labelling it abuse. People didn't like it because the parents may not be aware they are causing damage. In extreme cases I find that hard to believe, but I conceded the point. I guess it's just better to say that indoctrination can be harmful. I have no doubts about that.

Trying to "teach" your kid something you can't rationally explain is pretty weak though in my opinion. I mean, sometimes you just tell them not to do things until they are at an age where they can understand, but there's no such age for this.
