@swiley Yea, and that in and of itself is a fairly common theme in the bible.
@swiley Well you'd have to provide a passage for us to really debate it.
But i suspect if there is anything in the bible its more about not being an alcoholic than it is about never getting intoxicated, since clearly the bible is quite ok and even promotes certain drugs (wine), within reason.
@swiley Searching the bible now.. 0 hits on sobriety, sober has several hits but none of them are talking about drugs, and none of them seem to claim that intoxication is wrong.
I think the excess use of wine in the bible alone shows that sobriety is not a law, jesus is literally handing out drugs in the bible (wine) that he creates using his christian magick thing he has going.
LOL I really enjoyed this way too much.

@bluejay I'm not the one picking apart words.. you are the one who objected to me saying "fraud" and your responses seem to be beating around the bush to say fraud without using the word.
And yes you can ask about the potential for fraud without thinking fraud occured. Thank you for finally answering what i was asking :)
@bluejay "more safe"... safe from what? You said you arent talking about fraud.. so what is it voterID is keeping you safe from?
