Yes, operative word is "can". I don't have to. I have a choice, and if I make the choice not to drink, that should not be mocked.

I don't understand this. I'm not saying anyone who drinks can't have a good life, just as I'm saying anyone who doesn't drink can't have a good life. I'm saying it's possible to do both. So why should I be looking at myself??

Props for getting Batlord to approach compatabilism though.

I have no idea what this means.

Where am I being self-righteous about not drinking, Marie? All I'm asking for is equal treatment and consideration. I don't feel that's being self-righteous. If anything, those who think everyone should be drinking and mock those who don't are the ones being self-righteous.
