I don't feel any conviction morally or otherwise about it. It's my life an ...[text shortened]... h has his own.
But all that doesn't lower the biblical standard, which prohibits drunkenness.
So can I enjoy my life as i see fit? . . . If I'm sweating my arse off at 8am after work , is it ok by you for me to drink a beer or 6? If each has its own line, then why do you presume to know it?
