That is a misquote. What I said was:
"Biblical points aside, the insensitivity on this issue is shocking. Our western culture is not a culture of restraint, which places alcohol use in a whole different category than it was in Bible days."
You don't agree that western culture is one of indulgence, generally speaking?
Were there any other parts of my post which you felt weren't biblically supported, or supported by other evidence?
