Remember the Jesuit adage: “Give me a boy up to the age of seven and I will
give you a Catholic” (or something similar...).

Yuck... Give a religious man a boy of that age and what you’ll most likely
get is another boy molested by a priest/preacher/whatever...

You reckon? Most likely? Come on, show me a reference that says that 51% of
religious men molest boys.
Your comment is without base, and apparently without thought.

But it does tell us a lot about religion that go after the younger, more
innocent and less critic people to recruit followers in their faith.

It might. It might also tell us that that Jesuits value education (and early
education, at that) very highly.
