Don't know what brainwashing you are heaping on your kids.
I don't have to brainwash my kids at all. They'll know the truth, not based on something I tell them, but based on what's shown, and cannot be said. Hopefully as evident in my life, my wife's life, my communities life for them, as it was for me.
Yeah, as if your kids being surrounded by many adult authority figures, that all believe in the same unevidenced, irrational beliefs, does not have any indoctrinating effect on them.
Sunday church, Bible study, Christian youth camp, etc... No indoctrination there, nope.
Sorry, but I've been there. You may not believe you are brainwashing your kids, but that doesn't change the fact.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
