USAMcK, What's interesting is that the Bible does not condemn drinking; the Bible condemns drunkenness. Because some will exaggerate a biblical warning does not invalidate the truth of what it actually says. Drunk or sober, the truth remains: Jesus is Lord.

Player #3813778, you made the best point on the matter. Other notable points are: Jesus' first miracle at the Cana wedding, Paul's exhortation to Timothy to have wine to settle his stomach, Ecclesiastes and other passages which make a positive mention of wine.

Sounds like a plan! Alcohol is nothing but problems and health issues! And causes fights and arguments with couples! That’s facts! 100!

I had forgotten that the issue of alcohol consumption is a state right. When I was 18 and traveling with my parents to a number of different states for interviews for colleges I learned that just because you could drink all alcoholic beverages at 18, other states had entirely different laws. In Virginia you could drink beer or wine but you had to be 21 to drink hard liquor.

Mississippi still holds the prize for least in education, healthcare and housing. I do not think that they are asking the Lord to turn water into wine.

Katiebug1597, yep, my county is dry, but my city is able to sell beer....not wine or hard liquor. I think one of them is dry and the others wet.
