    It was, we should have converted you guys more agressively to Reformed Protestantism and assasinate those pesky muslim leaders like Soekarno, modern-day Indonesia would have been way better, and maybe even a colony still. But those pesky VDB/LU/VVD Liberals , SDAP/CPH/PvdA socialists and RKSP/KVP Catholics would have objected really, and the ARP/CHU/SGP Protestant parties never had a parliamentary majority, we should have sticked with Absolutism really.

    Anyway, if you're serious about conversion I suggest you read the Epistles of the Apostles first, starting with Corinthians I up to Jude and if you don't understand anything or get stuck somewhere you can always PM me, I'd be more than happy to help

    Because the Indonesians themselves didn't want independence at all >_>

    Well the thing with Christians and alcohol obviously varies from place to place, probably more a cultural thing that anything. A lot of Scots Presbyterians still think of alcohol as the "devil's buttermilk".
    At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.

    but we don't want to be put under islamic rule, I hope that terrorist parties to be arrested soon and executed, just like what Soekarno and Soeharto does, no tolerance towards religious fanaticism is always the best.

    oh, and now some of my muslim friends start asked me to buy booze for them, sonic included, since the rules are in trial period here

    I am pretty confused, and it sounds like most other people are too.

    If I am not mistaken, It sounds like what he is not telling us is that the new law in his country seems to be based on what religion you are registered as...So that if you are Christian, the anti-alcohol law does not apply, but if you are registered as a Muslim or Buddhist then you are no longer allowed to drink alcohol?

    Please clairify the nature of this new law so that we can understand a bit better CW.

    Depends on the brand of Christianity you're getting. The New World sects of Christianity tend to be more firebrand about the booze than old world.

    Yeah, and historically, the later Abbasid caliphs were a bunch of drunkard nymphomanes who partied all night long, Caligula-style, in their palaces in Baghdad.

    Doesn't mean that a lot of Muslims drink nowadays, or that Buddhist organisations have no moral justification in their opposition to the consumption of alcohol.
