"Do kids have an innate ability to think logically without training, and if so, how and when are they most susceptible to the superstitions of adults? "
Children are first introduced to superstitions at about age 1 or so when they are taught about Santa Claus who serves as a training diety. A bait and switch concept to be sure. Bait them with Santa and later switch them to Jesus.
