But your advice wasn't to get all the information though, it was to listen to your unevidenced assertions and that alone. You've no interest in the truth, you've no interest in the complete information and you've no interest in openness, because all those things show the lie of your religious beliefs.
My advice was predicated on the assumption that Erica had encountered arguments that illustrated to her that her parents were wrong. I doubted a 17 year old is aware there is 2000 years of philosophical thought/justification (in tens of thousands of books) that backs up the beliefs of her parents. I also doubt that she realized there are no new arguments against Christianity--so the idea that we have somehow discovered "truth" lately is completely false.
Regarding seeking truth, there would be no way to evaluate the truth claims of Christianity without understanding the doctrines thoroughly (including answering the age-old objections to them).
It is your opinion that my religious beliefs are a lie. You could not possibly know that.
