Question by Desiree: Has Westerners consumption of alcohol contributed to the influence Christianity has over the West?
What are some emotions that Christianity heavily relies on? That’s right, guilt, shame, remorse etc. Nobody does a guilt trip better than a Christian. And what are some emotions you feel after a night spent drinking alcohol? That’s right, guilt, shame, remorse etc. The reason I draw a distinction to alcohol is that Westerners probably have the longest history of excessive alcohol consumption. So I think there is a logical connection between the West’s love of alcohol and the chosen religion of the West. Do you concur?
