Well, sorta. The difference is that advertisers dont really brainwash the kids, but instead just make it look cool.
Christians, on the other hand, make it seem retarded NOT to be a christian. They get babies from a young age and make them believe what they believe.
Im glad i grew up in an even sided family that let me make my own choice. :-)

Parents have the first responsibility for the education of their children. They bear witness to this responsibility first by creating a home where tenderness, forgiveness, respect, fidelity, and disinterested service are the rule. The home is well suited for education in the virtues. This requires an apprenticeship in self-denial, sound judgment, and self-mastery - the preconditions of all true freedom. Parents should teach their children to subordinate the "material and instinctual dimensions to interior and spiritual ones." Parents have a grave responsibility to give good example to their children. By knowing how to acknowledge their own failings to their children, parents will be better able to guide and correct them:
He who loves his son will not spare the rod. . . . He who disciplines his son will profit by him.
Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord

Exactly like that. It's the first step in brainwashing. Also why they have kids bibles with all the cool pictures. Of course they leave out pictures of slaves and mass murder and rape. All of which the bible promotes.

Yes, it is. The Bible tells us to teach it to your children and they will always follow it. That is brainwashing, and it haooened to me. I am intelligent and strong, so I resisted it, but the rest of my family did not. They all fear to even question the family brand of Christianity, but I did at age 7.

Christianity should be carried out between consenting adults in private,their attempts to indoctrinate the young is simply child abuse.

Sure, indoctrination is the only thing keeping religion going. Very, very few people would swallow that story if they heard it for the first time as adults.

Why do you think they have Sunday school, and try to indoctrinate kids from such an early age?
It's just like the avalanche of commercials during Saturday morning cartoons....
