I was. I was quite religious when I first discovered the internet. I'm still spiritual and do believe in God, but I don't believe God makes us quit drinking or is even all that involved in day-to-day life. I believe God loves us and wants us to be happy and live fulfilling lives, but whether or not we do isn't up to God, it's up to us. It's kind of complicated, the way I think. Oh well, what else is new.
