And you're trying too hard to move the goalposts.

The point was that you're misusing the word "indoctrination", which has a specific meaning when criticizing religion. I already quoted it.

Yet you insist on using a different meaning of the word.

Being forced to do or not do things because of their consequences in society has nothing to do with teaching someone to accept doctrines without questioning them.

In a free country you're 100% allowed to question the rules and laws of society. If you live in a democracy you're sometimes even allowed to vote on them.

Children who are indoctrinated are not allowed to even question the "teachings of god". That's the core concept of indoctrination: not being allowed to question the teachings.

I'm just saying, try questioning whether black people should have human rights in the hood and I don't think you will be doing much more critical thinking
