My point is that the bible doesn't wholly condemn drinking, nor does anything anywhere leave judgement up to us. There is nothing that will turn me personally away from Christian rhetoric faster than those who spout it and use it to judge, especially those who have no experience whatsoever with what they are judging.

For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day. (Acts 2:13)

My personal favorite line from the Bible.
