It was certainly very Christianity censored. That dad also mentions when talking to the kid that no one in their right mind would believe in Christianity unless they were taught that by an authority figure when they were young. There are people who become Christian later in life voluntarily. Excuse me, but god knows why.

Yeah. Even I don't know why in a secular understanding why I became a Christian...my family never wanted to expose me to religion because they wanted me to find out on my own.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

RE: How to Suck at Your Religion
I know I was raised in the church for the most part with my mother. Her father was a baptist preacher later in his life. So I can def say for the most part it would be from being taught at a young age. Those that convert later on in life often seem to have been in a rough patch when someone approached them with a good 'Jesus saves' sales pitch. I'm not saying this is always the case and I'm certain even if it is the case for most people they will probably deny it happened that way.
I'm no one special and I treat everyone the best I possibly can, but to you believer, despite my acts, I am condemned to hell.
