To further the thoughts of a previous poster ...
sex satiates the flesh ... yet under the covenant of marriage it is not a sin ...
eating satiates the flesh and is not a sin ... yet it can become gluttony ....
alcohol as a drink can satiate the flesh yet is not a sin but it can become drunkeness ...
satiating the flesh is now a sin?
I have never questioned your ability as a pastor PP ... even when I've disagreed w/ your views .... this is troublesome indeed.

No, you've just called me a dishonest Pharisee.
I don't doubt your ability. I do question the wisdom of saying, "I've always wondered what kind of drunk I would be" on a public forum.

You people disgust me sometimes.
It's one thing to allow ANYONE, including backsliders, to post here at will. Admin has been very kind in that regard.
Another entirely to openly tolerate, revel in, and promote sin. BTW, drunkenness IS sin. Admin shouldn't be required to put up with that garbage.
The whole "it's cool to be a backslider and promote my wickedness on AFF" thing is a little out of hand.

I think you need to re-read...because I never saw this...I saw people talking about enjoying a glass of wine or a Maragrita from time to time not once did any speak of getting drunk...........you are over reacting which is not a surprise....

Look, it was real wine.
Period.
But that does not excuse drunkenness, which is a sin.
Glorifying it is wrong.

Here's a thought: Is laughing about drunkenness and talking about the "good ol' days", and various experiences the same as laughing and joking about adultery or fornication?
Should we make light of such things? I'm not offended by intelligent conversation. I'm offended when sin is made to be a laughing matter, or into something trivial...perhaps treated as if it is essentially harmless, when it never is. I'm offended when those who hold certain convictions for both Biblical and personal reasons are ridiculed.
Normally I can discuss this topic quite rationally. Today isn't my day, apparently.
