Bible Note: CDBJ, I was merely pointing out that 20th Century American style prohibitions on tobacco and alcohol have no warrant in Scripture nor Catholic or Reformed Christianity. The prohibition movement are American cultural phenomena, sometimes wrapped in a denomination religious cloak, not a mandate of Scripture. Which, I hasten to add, is not an endorsement on my part of either smoking nor alcohol abuse. Emmaus |
