The Universe Next Door
Do Christians Indoctrinate Their Children? (And is it Abuse?)
Show Notes

What does it actually mean to indoctrinate? Does the Bible encourage abuse of children and shame those who ask questions? Are those who are raised in Christianity taught to avoid critical thinking? Is there any connection between mental health and church attendance? What should you do if you're struggling with your faith, or with anxiety and depression?
