Litergical/cutural Views Of Wine/alcohol

[Apteka]

Everything you post is bs...lol I personally can't trust anyone who leaves Gods Church and bashes it then tells me its "important" to drink without moderation at festivities and get wasted....That's a mortal sin......But you don't believe in that....Get the floppy out of here....

 

I don't trust prudes or people who can't handle alcohol, sorry, just my metanarrative.

I would like to zap you back 2000 years so you could call St. John the Baptist a prude to his face.

After he was done with you, you'd definitely need a drink.

I grew up in a Baptist household and there was never wine in our home, or any alcohol.  Both my atheist father and Baptist mother had watched relatives drown themselves in alcohol, with dad's younger brother dying from sclerosis of the liver.  It was a minor family scandal when my cousin M. had alcohol at her wedding reception.

 

My first drink, ever, was at twenty-one and a half years old, a glass of Saint Francis merlot.

 

 

 maybe people just dont like how it tastes!

 

Hi, I'm BG, and I have to have mixed drinks, because I hate the taste of alcohol.  Amaretto Sours and Long Island Iced Teas are my friends lol.

MMM amaretto sours! I haven't had one in forever. They used to be my favorite drink, then I overdid it and now I am sick of them. Do you like vodka cranberries? That's probably my drink of choice...IF I drink. 

 

I don't know what happened, but as soon as I could legally drink I lost all interest. I'm almost 26 and I drink maybe 1-2 times per year, never get drunk.

Oh I love them!  I'll do vodka cranberry sometimes, when I'm being social.  I'd rather just have the cranberry juice though.  Ditto on never drinking to get drunk at 27, and I think I drink more than you:

*2 conferences

*2 weddings

*1 or 2 parties

 

It's kind of funny, but it's not really too uncommon for people to stop having a lot of interest in drinking once it's legal.  At least from the research one of the profs on campus has done. :)

Ok, so I grew up Southern Baptist, but my dad drank beer nightly. His parents were tee-totalers, and his brother an alcoholic (thankfully sober for over 20 years now). My mom's parents were social drinkers, as are her siblings. My mother doesn't drink, because wine makes her sick and she isn't Into beer or liquor. From around age 13 I had the option of a small glass of wine with dinner, but I didn't do that more until 19 or so. My father-in-law was the brewmaster at a brewpub, so obviously my husband grew up around alcohol. Both of us enjoy a drink with dinner.
