No more so than the media (newspapers, books, and TV) control and selectively 'educate' people of both low and high IQ. Advertizing experts, confidence tricksters, and religious cult leaders have known for many, many years that to 'brainwash' people into believing something different is relatively easy, and that the easiest people to brainwash are those who believe they are too intelligent to be 'taken in' and conned by anything or anyone. That is what cults rely on: most people in cults are more intelligent than the statistical norm and can thus be more malleable. In contrast, The Bible was not made to control people but to release people from slavery of the mind (eg through control, manipulation, 'education', brainwashing) into knowing that true freedom only comes through Salvation by Jesus Christ:-

Joh 20:26-31 NET Eight days later the disciples were again together in the house, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you!" [v. 27] Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here, and examine my hands. Extend your hand and put it into my side. Do not continue in your unbelief, but believe." [v. 28] Thomas replied to him, "My Lord and my God!" [v. 29] Jesus said to him, "Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are the people who have not seen and yet have believed." [v. 30] Now Jesus performed many other miraculous signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not recorded in this book. [v. 31] But these are recordedso that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

Joh 8:31-32 KJV Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; [v. 32] And ye shall know the truth, andthe truth shall make you free.

1Co 9:1 Am I not an apostle?Am I not free? Have I not seen our Lord Jesus Christ? Are you not my work in the Lord?

Gal 5:1 Then stand firm in the freedom with which Christ made us free and do not be held again with a yoke of slavery.

What does it mean in the bible when someone says you are broken?

To be "broken" in a spiritual sence is to be made humble essentually. Though in a biblical context this is often not a plesant experience. Many instances throughout the bible show people in a state of "brokeness" and it is at this low point that people often turn to God for help. Many verses in the bible also talk about God's ability to "mend brokeness" and to "heal the heart" these are closly related acts of healing. Though they are meerly metephorical, they illustrate Gods desire to see that we are filled with the joy of knowing Him and that we can grow and develop in a relationship with him dispite our momentary difficulties.
