I've been around a long time, and I've been a Southern Baptist all that time. I've seen more Baptists drop dead of overeating then by John Barleycorn. They all sing "we don't drink, smoke or chew and won't go out with girls who do", then they go to church suppers and eat fried chicken, pork chops, barbecue, apple pie etc. Look at Falwell and Hagee and maybe even YOUR pastor. Gluttony is as much a sin as drunkenness, and we won't even talk about adultery and lusting after other men's wives. I've been sipping a little Jim Beam every day since I was a pup, and I'm not the worse for it. It probably is good for me after one of those high carb, high fat Baptist suppers.
