Reminds me of Aron Ra, he grew up in a mormon family, but in his case they waited with the indoctrinating until he was old enough, which was when he was eight

But as he himself said "by then it was already too late"

When his mother sat him down and started reading to him from the book of mormon, he just pointed out things that were wrong and stupid.

Remember, if you want your kids to believe the stupid things you believe, start early and don't let them see or hear too much about reality, or you'll have a bad time

Me, after learning where Mormonism came from: "So you're telling me your entire belief system stems from believing a teenager, who was known to be a con man, had golden plates given to him by God that nobody else was allowed to see? Are y'all fucking dumb or something?"
