Indoctrination definition on dictionary.com literally uses religious indoctrination as an example. I don’t think it’s on me to change your mind. 🤣😉😂 
Religion is indoctrination... Following Jesus is an individual pursuing their conscience in light of scripture. Perhaps there's a case for indoctrination happening along the way when people pursue Jesus in a community. But there's nothing wrong with a community having standards for full participation. As individuals, we should carefully inspect the fruits of the doctrines of our community.
The priest forces you to continue in the religion and does not allow you to leave it and does not allow you to question his beliefs ???
How does a priest force you to do anything? You are always free to find another church or community. I spose he could kick you out of his community if you are teaching others things that are contrary to his teachings... But neither of those are forced indoctrination..
That’s my point… you can choose to go to another church, practice another religion, or not practice any
