Alcoholism
Starting a thread from the spin off in "Allowing Children to Seek the Holy Ghost?" thread. Some have already responded in that thread.
I know Catholics and Lutherans and some other churches embrace alcohol consumption more than most Pentecostals... I am curious whether there are more or less alcoholics in each church. I have no real hard evidence, but I tend to think churches who preach against alcohol may have a greater propensity to crawl inside the bottle when members do indulge. I think it may be true on a greater societal level too.
Any thoughts?
