"The individual came from a devoutly Christian family, such people tend to absorb family influences" - Jim Carroll

Yet for some reason Jim only thinks that this happens in Christian households and communities. Wonder what reasoning and logic he employs to come to that conclusion - apparently no family influences are absorbed in homes and families of other religions. He also seems to think that "culture" in which someone is brought up in and lives his/her whole life in is not a factor - when of course it's influence is far greater than that of religion
