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.

Hahahahaha omg you amuse me. Books that back up the Christian faith? You do know a lot of stupid people write books right? You do know that the whole idea of following an old book *cough*thebible*cough* just because it is old is just silly and naïve.

Also if your signature makes my scrolling mess up "you're tacky and I hate you."
