      @Darkzz No, the state doesn't indoctrinate Christianity, it indoctrinated homosexuality and atheism. You get fired if you don't. Every single convert to the religion of atheism is an underage child, from school. This is true in the atheists crowning achievement of China as well, where they have LITERAL indoctrination if you're not an atheist. Actually kidnapping religious people and doing forced indoctrination.
      There is no Christian Religion brainwashing anywhere on earth, and it's still the biggest Religion. Every other religion has their brand of religion upheld by the state and is wholly dependant on naive children to trick. You yourself got done as a dumb child by the state education. And judging by your picture; the homosexuality too.
      You have been refuted.
      As for your blasphemies, the atheist state school must've missed this part:
      *2 Corinthians 8:9 For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.*
      What hobo? Didn't you know the Lord worked as a carpenter before his ministry? He was rich and didn't waste any money on gay porn like an atheist. He made himself poor to do the mission.
      I don't know what the "more than women" comment means but homosexuality is taught by the secular state. It's literally just the Christians explaining to the atheists that they're supposed to be in a lifelong committed relationship WITH A WOMAN, atheists say men with men is the equivalent.

      @@olivesama nah, she has her good side with really caring for AJ and with her genuine will to help at the law center. She is not even bad later on, just corrupted by her parents and there is so much you can do pro-bono. But here? She wants to piss her parents, it's not about the guy on some level. That she gets after Tony - it's all honor among men, but when it suits him. Plus, she later really ignores reality of the way their life is set.

    As a mother, that kind of college age daughter crap is hard to deal with in any family. The daughters always think they are all grown up, that they know everything, And that their parents are trying to control them and prevent them from developing their own identity. I love that look on mom’s face before she leaves the dorm room, like “you’ll find out soon enough what life is all about”.
