Does Religion Manipulate the Minds of Children? A Rejoinder to the Critics

Christians have been accused of manipulating the minds of their children by controlling what they experience. From an extreme secular perspective—secular meaning of the present age (culture)—theapproach of Christians in raising their children is regarded as indoctrination akin to brainwashing. This presentation examines whether or not it is acceptable for Christians to raise their children as Christians.
