But I have friends that do; and when I go out to dinner with them, I remember Paul's words and have a coke. -- David Norris :-) -- uw-beaver!ssc-vax!david A friend of mine is Bahai, and consequently does not drink alcoholic beverages. I, on the other hand, don't eat pork. Last time we had dinner together, she had spare ribs, and I had a beer with my meal. Neither of us was offended or put off, nor did we feel that the other was sinning. I think the difference in attitude is worth meditating on.
