It's called indoctrination.

Indoctrination isn't a real thing, or at least not in the sense that choice isn't a factor. It's just an excuse atheists use on people who keep the faith. If every kid of religious families was indoctrinated then no one would have turned atheist to begin with.

I was using that word for exaggeration and mostly to comically insult you, but to outright claim that indoctrination isn't a thing is a bit silly. I mean fair enough, I'm sure you had plenty of chances to explore your doubts and you choice not to investigate further, but to say indoctrination isn't a real thing to anyone anywhere is a bit ridick.

Also I fucking hate the any argument with "it's just a _ athiest uses", "that's just what athiests always say," "athiests use that tactic" bla bla bla. We aren't some sort of organised force coming out to get you and turn you into one of us dude.
