I was too much of an independent thinker at that age to have fallen into those traps but what I meant was that a lot of teenagers think like this in those binary modes. Either you "love" their favorite singer or you "hate" them. They see everything in black and white without subtlety.

Btw, why do you think Alicia has such a cynical view of religion? I understand it completely, but I wonderig what you'll thought?

I don't think she was raised by religious parents so she wouldn't have been exposed to religion at a young age. Maybe she was curious later and found it lacking. Also I guess being a liberal in the US, with the Christian right making the news way too often with outrageous comments probably didn't help her any.
I had the feeling she was more cynical about Christians than about religion.
