Do not educate them, or expose them to critical thinking, logic or science.
Lie to them constantly about how the
world works. Feed them a steady diet of mumbo jumbo dressed up like real
knowledge – the jumbo jet in the whirlwind for example – and pretend
that it is deep wisdom.
Make them loathe their own natural bodies
and functions. Convince them they are small and weak and worthless and
need redemption. Tell them everything enjoyable is grievously wrong to
even think about, and that their only fun should be in grovelling to an
invisible friend.
Ensure that they resent anyone who is not
like them in every way – skin color, nationality, political opinion but
especially creed. Make such people out to be evil and vile and give
them – impotent minorities all – the fictional power to somehow oppress
and persecute the vast majority who do think like you.
Teach them to laugh at and dismiss out of
hand any faith but their own. Early – early mind you – make sure they
are taught the difference between superstitious deadly error – that one
raving lunatic in the desert told the truth about a vicious god who
killed people, and divine eternal truth – that another raving lunatic in
the desert told the truth about a vicious god who killed people.
Instruct them with all severity and
import to never question for themselves – to never think for themselves –
to never live for themselves – but to seek answers only in one – just
one – particular set of semi-literate bronze age folk tales.
Above all – and this cannot be
overemphasized – make sure they cannot spell, use correct grammar, or
understand basic English words.
