You know what Helio? You're right, for the wrong reasons. You could look at these couple examples and say, schools use manipulation. But schools aren't intending to manipulate, they're intending to make the learning process as smooth as possible. Christianity manipulates people to make them believe in false beliefs.
AHHA!

You've dropped the gloves I see.

You see? In the end this debate is based off the presumption christianity is already a proven false belief system. So in essence any theist trying to debate the point is forced into accepting your existing stance. So the debate fails before it begins.

Christianity is a false belief system to you, but not to others. So to demand they accept your terms isn't debate, its false presumptions and manipulation of information.

That's not what the DARE program teaches at all. They teach it's a personal choice, just that it's the wrong personal choice.
More of your personal choice in the matter? Is it really a schools job to tell kids Weed is a bad choice and you shouldn't smoke it? Not that I am giving my opinion on the matter but can you at least admit thats brainwashing. Grabbing kids at an early age to deplore drug use in an attempt to prevent drug use at an older ago.

You ignore the main point and pick at a couple smaller points so that you can pretend to yourself that you're right. For example, just now, you're trying to prove a couple small ways schools brainwash, and you're completely disregarding the fact that Christianity brainwashes even more, and for the wrong reasons.
^ See the first point.

There is no answering questions when your assuming that christianity is a false belief system. That's like asking a devout Brooklyn conservative jew his opinion on wether or not making his wife stay inside during her period is oppression. He obviously doesn't share your view on PMS just being a perfectly natural event.


What do you say to an atheist who sneezes?
