Yes, and I don't think I'm going to play this time. I suspect that any rebuttal will be greeted with another copy-and-paste job of the contents of the OP.
Agreed...with the resident holier-than-thou's chiming in.

I'm 18 yrs postdoctoral Ed.D. in higher education.

What I post I wrote.
Now I'm shaking in my boots :D. Someone with that much experience should have more wisdom and a better hermeneutic concerning the 244 times alcohol is found in the Bible.

Post your statement about alcohol, I'll read it.
There are 244 of them found in the Bible dealing with both blessings, curses and warnings. I don't have that kind of time to put each one in its proper context, and I'm guessing it wouldn't matter anyway to those that teach a hard line abstinence position. Given your summaries highlighted above, I'll pass.
