(I realize there are many who are just born into it and give it no thought at all.)

That is a bit harsh.  Many people escape from theism.

It would be different if people were properly raised, and then they adopted theism.  Then I would agree, their minds are mush.  But many people are very thoroughly indoctrinated as children, and so, for a time, they believe some drivel.  The smarter ones escape, but one cannot judge the level of intelligence purely by how long it takes to come to one's senses, as some people are more thoroughly indoctrinated than others.
