get children hooked on cigarettes and those used by
churches to brainwash children into accepting an ancient mind-numbing myth. In short, get them while they're young (and maybe you'll get them for life).
"As everyone knows, children are impressionable because they lack experience, so they tend to believe anything that people in positions of authority tell them. That is exactly why they need to be protected from this sort of
abuse. If religious people of all stripes truly believed in the truth of their faith, they'd allow children to reach adulthood before exposing them to religion so they could make their own decision about what (if anything) to believe."
