    Drinking alcohol per se isn't a vice, but alcohol abuse is.

    Thanks Johnny, I see it is pretty much the same boring line up as every other year.

    Most people consider drinking, smoking and gambling to be vices. Hence my reference. Could clamping down on "abuse" be the thin end of the wedge?

    Oh NO! After we finish the Isaiah book it's on to the study of Amos.

    They love those obscure prophetic books now that they have failed at explaining Daniel & Revelation.

    If anyone is desparate to partake of this fine spiritual feast, remember that God is very selective in who can hear his fine message ... you have to wear a cheap piece of cardboard or else you are doomed to eternal death
