The power of environment

Imagine a child in his first year of schooling. His parents have sent him to a religious affiliated school to learn the values of a certain world view. Every time this child comes to class upset or one of his fellow students comes to class upset, the teacher simply reassures the student that God loves him, and to simply pray for what he wants. Whenever the students have an obstacle to overcome, the teacher simply rounds the children up for prayer. Now the teacher had other options, in which he explained to upset students why they were upset and how to work through it on their own terms or before an obstacle he could run through strategies. How do you think this student, when he grows up, will deal with each problem in his or her life? God is the answer. Now ask yourself this, is God the answer because he is the ultimate truth or at childhood God was conditioned into the child's psyche, thus the product of his early environment has lead him to believe in God, blindly or not???

What happens to this child when he is confronted by logical facts that contradict the things he has believed his whole life?
Guilt is the first answer that comes to mind.
What about when this child realizes God may not exist, how does he then deal with problems in his life?
