The reason these people "believe" this stuff is because they weren't given a chance to make their own choice when they were young. They were indoctrinated before they had the capacity to think critically -- essentially, throwing away any chance they had when they were born, to make their own decisions about religion at a later time when they would have had a chance to make the decision after seeing things from all perspectives.

Sure, but you can say that about virtually anything a child believes. They only believe it because they were indoctrinated. Usually by parents, and sometimes by other adults, television... whatever.
If we gave kids the ability to choose any direction before they were allowed to critically think for themselves, not only would Catholic schools not exist, but no schools would exist.
