But when it comes to teaching about matters of faith and religion, what
isn't indoctrination? Or, what
shouldn't be indoctrination? (rhetorical questions.)
Only when one admits, "I don't know the answer, so there's wiggle room on that subject," --seems only then is teaching any belief
not indoctrination. But in admitting that, one is simultaneously admitting the Word of God is not clear enough to make a clear decision--when the scripture claims the god will lead you to All Truth. Either way, "indoctrination" ought not be in a perjorative term to Christians, IMO.

Interesting, I had somewhat the opposite experience. I started out A of G, was happy there for one year, received HG, spoke in tongues, but upon hearing
Acts 2:38 message the first or second time, a bunch more things fell into place, at least doctrinally. At least it all made sense
enough for the next 20 years.
(OF course, now, everything makes even better sense, since it's all made up by different religious men with slightly different religious beliefs. Shoehorn them all together and call it The Word of God--way more likely, and sensible.)
