You can call it an over statement when we read in the news: Homeless man fed...alcohol was a factor. Rocky marriage salvaged...alcohol was a factor. Man off unemployment and working again...alcohol was a factor. Child abuse down...alcohol was a factor. Fatal auto accidents down 50%...alcohol was a factor. All we read on this site is the tragedy alcohol causes. Wake up.

Anyway you slice it, giving away $1,000 in a lottery scenario to one family that may not even need it is not being a good steward of a church's money.

How many poor families could be feed with $1,000 per week? Lots of them. Nothing but a gimmick to get media attention.

Good talk.

Do you think the people that drink and drive plan on driving drunk and killing someones wife or daughter? No. They don't think straight while drunk. They are probably good people, but make bad choices while being drunk, they can't help it. THAT is why I am against drinking period. I am against the root problem, which ruffles some feathers I realize, but I'm walking the talk.

I'm a Ethiopian Yirgacheffe addict. :) Tue, 8 Dec 2009 19:12:42 +0000 http://www.woodtv.com/dpp/news/local/kent_county/Man-charged-in-crash-that-killed-son#IDComment46293128 http://www.woodtv.com/dpp/news/local/kent_county/Man-charged-in-crash-that-killed-son#IDComment46292649 "Wait, you mean just plain drinking is stupid? Even responsibly? " Yes. "By that logic, you may no longer drive a car... " Poor analogy because an automobile's intent is not to alter your senses. Alcohol is made to alter your senses, and therefore stupid to me. Alcohol is a crutch for the weak minded, and puts millions of innocent people at risk daily because of it's use.

I don't understand why anyone would want to partake in something that kills so many people.
