You can get a wider range of quality drinks at lower prices from a supermarket

A range of alcoholic drinks

You have 1001 sources of entertainment on TV and the Internet

Is it wrong that I picked to be a Christian (as a teenager/14-year-old) even with knowing all of the information about other religions/atheism?
