It's getting sadder and sadder .......


I wonder what is more sad ? RBHill's claim that the whine Jesus "produced" was without alcohol or your "scientific" evaluation of the Biblical facts.

What's the theological position of the RCC on the alcohol content of Jesus wine? At communion in the US, the Church uses alcoholic wine although I believe it is normally watered down somewhat. The Vatican doesn't have a problem with alcohol in moderation, does it?

gratitude, not rudeness.

Gratitude ...... hmmmm ...... we'll have to wait and see .... in your case.

Biblical whines contained, as far as I know, alcohol.
The whine used in the Eucharist contains alcohol. About the same as port and sherry, about 18 %. The alcohol percentage may vary though.

The taste is superb, it resembles a dessert-wine, nice and sweet .... at least the one I drank.

Roman-Catholic teaching doesn't have a problem with moderate alcohol use .... with the explicite emphasis on "moderate".

So, you deny RBHILL's claim that the communion wine served in Catholic churches is stale grape juice?

The Catholic churches in my area offer both grape juice and wine (with alcoholic content) so that those who abstain from alcohol or wish their children to not be exposed to the drug can have an alternative while still participating in communion. I know that this is true for the three Catholic churches with which I have experience in my county.

There is nothing wrong with alcohol as far as I know. If it is used in moderation there is no problem. Of course there is the occasional preacher who uses it for "medicinal" purposes.😉

I believe this is true in my area as well.

Thank you, Ivanhoe for your answer.

It is this utter lack of contrition that convinces me that you ain't
got Jesus. Some who's got Jesus strives for correctness in God's
Word. You don't.

Ivanhoe, I read today that the Dutch courts have ruled that witches in the Netherlands can deduct the costs of their education as an expense. Have you heard of this?

Guess what. I started learning Dutch last night. I may start responding to you in Dutch to practice, once I get some more vocabulary under my belt.
