Does religious brainwashing cause....

... a certain amount of permanent brain damage ?

I mean to say, can a person be totally raised as a faithful christian, then one day, wake up saying WTF was I ever thinking ... Then never have any problems, or doubts, or guilt trips from then on out ?

Impo, indoctrination of a child with religious BS is psychlogical abuse. Not much different than teaching them to be racist.
