I think drinking is one of the main moral issues that Christian conservatives ignore. To me there isn't a more destructive social behavior, at this poitn, than drinking. yet we ignore the issue becaause so many people do it--so who wants to call a friend or family member out?
I proudly do not drink and my denomination (nazarene) tends to argue against it as well.
Drinking isn't the problem [Jesus and Mary spoke of wine in the bible at the wedding feast etc.] ....it's the abuse of drinking that is the problem. We are all resposible to follow God's laws. Outlawing drinking never solves the problem of abuse drinking.
