Abstract: This systematic review investigates the potential negative effects of religious indoctrination, specifically within the Catholic Church, on children's autonomy, self-determination, and human rights.
Drawing on existing literature, including the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR), the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, and the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman, or Degrading Treatment or Punishment, the study examines the hypothesis that early exposure to religious doctrines may lead to coercive control and compromise children's human rights.
The review also explores the potential consequences of religious indoctrination on children's mental health, relationship dynamics, and long-term well-being.
Findings suggest that religious indoctrination may contribute to various psychological disorders, including trauma, coercive control, bullying, and narcissism, and may impede the accurate diagnosis and support of adult survivors of childhood religious abuse.
Further research is needed to explore the impact of religious indoctrination across different religions and cultural settings, as well as the development of appropriate regulations and interventions to protect children's rights and well-being in religious contexts.

The inability of a child to thrive in a God based rape culture can never be the product of a fault with the child.
Our world is the product of an insane God who plays deadly games of rape, entrapment and exploitation with every accessible child through guidance and funding of the people under systemically failed democratic and justice systems and Constitutional protection.
