Dear Mike
How lovely to start my Monday with nice messages from both you and Joe Bob. < g >
Apparently the girl is a regular sunday school and church attendant. Yet the father successfully argues that pledging damages her.
If you cannot see the absurdity and distortion, I recommend you make an appointment to visit your pastor.

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
