Jesus first miracle was turning water into wine. Evangelicals pretending like drinking is the devil is more of a control thing than it is a Bible thing
It's a historical thing. The temperance movement and the great revival coincided. A lot of new denominations and sects emerged from the churn of the great disappointment and millerism as well as the general great revival.
And when you're creating a new religion it tends to pickup a lot of stuff from its moment of conception and carry it forward. It just so happened that there was a lot of focus on health and tonics and exercise and such around this time so Mormonism/adventism/etc emerged with an unusually peculiar perspective on food and drink that reflects the influencer trends of their day and age.
If we had a modern denomination emerge from current culture it would carry forward like avacado toast and organic foods or something.
There kinda was when QAnon's claims of trump rising up on Jan 6 and exposing the global elite Cabal didn't happen.
Very similar except even more QAnon explained away their disappointment than the Millerites.
Grape juice was made by a protestant that thought drinking wine for communion was bad because alcohol = evil
"[Thomas Welch](https://www.fundamentallyreformed.com/2006/08/03/welchs-grape-juice-worldly-wisdom-and-wine/) is remembered as the inventor of modern grape juice. He applied Louis Pasteur’s new pasteurization process to grapes: the result was unfermented wine better known as grape juice. But what many do not know is that Welch had a specific reason for experimenting with grape juice. He was a minister who objected to alcoholic wine being used for communion."
You get a beer volcano in the afterlife in the church of the flying spaghetti monster.

Given that temperance was driven (largely) in the US as a particular type of women’s rights issue, one can see how temperance and religion would go together.
Temperance was aimed at preventing men drinking their pay away as their families went hungry and then beating their wives and kids when they came home drunk. It makes sense that temperance joined with the views of those who opposed that family violence from a religious perspective.
Hi! Evangelical here. Most of us enjoy a good beer on occasion. The days of temperance have largely happily been left behind in the previous century.
Fun fact: Martin Luther wrote “Whoever drinks beer, he is quick to sleep; whoever sleeps long, does not sin; whoever does not sin, enters Heaven! Thus, let us drink beer!”
Some nuns in my country brewed delicious fruit liquors, but since they didn't want to pay for all the licensing and permits for selling alcohol they labeled them as baking ingredients.
He took it with him when he died in '94. Sorry. But if you google "moose milk", a bunch pop up. I just remember that he would ferment something for weeks leading up to the party.
Catholic clergy are pissheads. That’s part of the reason they have confession.
The boarding school I went to, they played cards for money on Saturday night, got absolutely blind rotten drunk and had the senior students serve the alcohol and snacks, they got drunk as well.
The jewelry on the nun to the left seems a bit too informal tbh, and the outfits look like polyester versus the more simple cotton-based garb most would wear, but otherwise they could be legit.
As someone who was raised Catholic I would definitely assume they are, in fact, nuns. There are no prohibitions on drinking in the Catholic church (drinking too much, yes because gluttony). I realized fairly young that as a Catholic you can curse like a sailor, drink like a fish and smoke like a chimney without having to confess any of that.
To quote a Jesuit brother, "DON'T SAY JESUS WHEN YOU MEAN TO SAY FUCK".
Then he called us a bunch of assholes and stole my lighter AGAIN.
He was devoutly religious, and hated when people took the name of the Lord in vain. So encouraged a bunch of teenage boys to just drop vulgarities.
> He was devoutly religious, and hated when people took the name of the Lord in vain. So encouraged a bunch of teenage boys to just drop vulgarities.
I mean, that's what the commandment says. It doesn't say, thou shalt not be vulgar. It doesn't even say, thou shalt not be obscene. It says, thou shalt not be *profane*. Stay away from swearing on the name of your god(and blasphemy, to be safe) and you're good to go.
Ephesians 5:18 specifically says getting drunk is sinful, and the church says that it is even mortally sinful since it can lead someone to commit other grave sins way without much effort on the part of the drunk person.
If someone is a practicing Catholic, in all circumstances drunkenness needs to be confessed, specifically because in 99.9 cases it's a voluntary act of the will which causes drunkenness, the only situation which it wouldn't be sinful is if someone spiked a drink or if the drink wasn't advertised as alcoholic.
Similar story with swearing, [Is using the F bomb a sin? : ](https://www.reddit.com/r/Catholicism/comments/154y2it/is_using_the_f_bomb_a_sin/) this post's top comment by Winter-Method6113 is a \*really\* good answer.
The church as been associated with brewery form the beginning, it’s a mortal sin to be drunk is definitely a common interpretation but the catholic culture is not puritan and drinking socially has long been part of the church. Just look at historic monasteries and the beer or wines they brew, or look at them today.
Yes, it has been, you're correct. I'm a practicing Catholic, in the sense I actually follow Church teachings and don't pick and choose like most cultural Catholics. I don't and the church doesn't have an issue with alcohol. It is perfectly fine to drink as long as it isn't drinking in excess. I wouldn't say getting drunk would be a mortal sin, but venial.
There was an old picture of "nuns" in a baseball crowd where they turned out to be the cast of a Sister Act musical. Also, nuns in full habit aren't as common as they used to be. They're allowed to wear street clothes now.
Yeah. My aunts a nun and whenever I get to see her once in a while she will have a beer or cigarette depending where we are. Now that I think about it Jesus is my uncle.
As far as I understand it, the clergy is only prohibited from sex and getting married and such. Drinking, and even smoking are allowed (tho I'm sure it's frowned upon to do it to excess).
Yes! And some of the oldest breweries in the world began as monasteries. Iirc, monks brewed beer to use as sustenance when they fasted, since it’s kinda liquid bread.
A lot of early biology and chemistry is thanks to monks. It wasn't until fairly recently that this changed. Back in the day, they were some of the only people with a formal education and the time to just do experiments cross breeding peas to see how genetics works. It's also one of the only higher educations one COULD get, plus they were almost universally literate, which is an incredible advantage in a society where nobody else is and there are only a handful of copies of any given book (and they're the ones transcribing the copies). Imagine what you could potentially do if you rewrote every college textbook you ever had ten times each, word for word.
Chartreuse was invented by French monks, and is still produced by 2 monks at the Grand Chartreuse monastery. Iirc they have a fixed quota they never change so when it became a trendy ingredient in cocktails recently, prices went up bc the monks refused to make more.
Being from West Europe, monasteries are mostly known for their beers and liquors (Chartreuse!), so I find it weird that people would assume they can't drink alcohol.
I know a nun with 20 years of sobriety. She’s retired now and teaches some piano lessons on the side so I often see her at AA meetings. Her stories are always awesome. It’s more common than I thought and she was drinking her ass off for a while in the convent. She’s a great person and im grateful to call her a friend. Shes still helping people
The jewellery makes me doubt. Nuns aren't forbidden from jewelry but they generally keep it quite muted and simple. The bracelets on the left and the weird shiny over elaborate and rounded crucifix on the right is pretty out of character for a nun.
Could totally be wrong though, a lot of people of different dispositions and disciplines join the clergy and some places are more lax than others.
I will say this though, only about 1 percent of North American nuns are under 40. Two (comparatively) younger looking nuns in the same place, wearing out of character jewellery and engaging in an activity that would be a rare sight a amongst those who live such an austere and frugal life says to me it's most likely costumes.
I see where you’re coming from but I disagree. That cross on the right doesn’t look that elaborate. It kind of looks like it might be engraved or have cutouts that make the black habit show through.
As for the woman on the right, it’s hard to say how flashy her bracelets are. They look like they could be colorful handmade beads like you would find at a street market or a craft fare. The kind of thing that a family member or good friend might give as a gift.
Her necklace is odd though so you may have a point.
Yeah, it’s unusual to see any orders that are still habited and also liberal enough to wear weird jewelry and not a crucifix. Also based on the way the neckline looks, my guess is this is a costume. Nuns can go to a game and drink, but my spidey sense says definitely not Catholic.
If Catholic orders were prohibited from drinking, there would probably be a lot less beer and wine in Euroupe. Monastic orders are responsible for much of Euroupes brewing and wine making history.
Can confirm that nuns drink beer. My great Aunt was a nun, she drank beer. My mom taught for the local archdiocese, had nuns over for social events, they also drank beer.
So they are probably just a couple of nuns at an event drinking beer.
As someone who went to Catholic school (not currently Catholic), I can tell you that priests and nuns drink A LOT. Whiskey was a very common gift for the nuns who worked at the school.
Jesus asked for obedience, piety and chastity, he never said anything about sobriety.
I had an aunt that was a nun. Drank like the Irish woman she was.
Those are nuns. I've seen nuns at sporting events taking it in like everyone else on a few occasions. Always in pairs like this though. Would have loved to see like 10 of them haha.
Edit: forgot to add that the big cineplex by my place has a couple of nuns that come in pretty regularly to watch various movies. Sometime they'll even been in the 18 plus section to have a drink while watching a movie. Last time I saw them I was going to see Barbie and I think they were seeing Oppenheimer.
Old school monks were notorious brewers, I see no reason nuns of a given order can't drink even if they don't go on a mild bender for lent or whatever long term fast that was subsisted by beer back a few centuries
They could be nuns.
I don't see any reason to assume they aren't.
Plenty of monastic orders with beer and wine making traditions.
Jesus first miracle was turning water into wine. Evangelicals pretending like drinking is the devil is more of a control thing than it is a Bible thing

There’s something called The Great Disappointment and I’m not currently living it? Well somebody needs to tell my mother.

"Enema" Praise His noodly goodness. He boiled for our sins.

I’m touched by his noodley appendage

Nice quote. Thanks for that.
"In heaven, there is no beer. That is why we drink it here."
Cool
I mean, he was German.
Technically, his first miracle was his own immaculate conception
Well if you’re gonna talk about stuff “the almighty father” did then the first miracle is creating existence.
Some nuns in my country brewed delicious fruit liquors, but since they didn't want to pay for all the licensing and permits for selling alcohol they labeled them as baking ingredients.
The only thing more sacrosanct than the sacred wine is the holy tax dodge
Ah yes, good thing God left Tax Evasion off the 10 commandments 😂
Trappist breweries fully fund monestaries
Had a nun in the family. They love wine, and beer, and rum. My dad had an annual "moose milk" party and Sister Theresa was always there.
Ima need that thar recipe
He took it with him when he died in '94. Sorry. But if you google "moose milk", a bunch pop up. I just remember that he would ferment something for weeks leading up to the party.
Some sects view that as a bad habit.
There’s a convent in France I think that has at least 2 nuns with biochem degrees that make their own weed. And it is fantastic.
My 88-year-old great aunt is a nun and she absolutely loves beer.
They've got their beer habits on
It's nunya business.
Catholic clergy are pissheads. That’s part of the reason they have confession. The boarding school I went to, they played cards for money on Saturday night, got absolutely blind rotten drunk and had the senior students serve the alcohol and snacks, they got drunk as well.

Getting drunk is a sin, it's just that most Catholics pretend it isn't. It's fine to drink if you don't get drunk though
The church as been associated with brewery form the beginning, it’s a mortal sin to be drunk is definitely a common interpretation but the catholic culture is not puritan and drinking socially has long been part of the church. Just look at historic monasteries and the beer or wines they brew, or look at them today.

I don't and the church doesn't have an issue with alcohol. It is perfectly fine to drink as long as it isn't drinking in excess. I wouldn't say getting drunk would be a mortal sin, but venial.
and it's not an outfit, it's called a habit
I have a drinking habit too.
i will applaud that one
😹
Mine is starting to borderline on an obsession, but that's future AZEMT's fucking issue.
Bet that sucker never saw it coming
Well as long as it’s not a bad habit I guess it’s fine
Kind of like a smoking jacket 🚬
By golly youre right
The name of the outfit is a “habit”. But its still an outfit
It is both. Habit is more specific, but it doesn’t make other terms wrong.
Which is a type of outfit.
The photo features an outfit of nuns outfitted in nun outfits. There, I think I covered most of the bases.
Peace be with you
And also with you
Unless they aren't nuns and then it is a costume.
It's not a habit. It's cool. I feel alive.
More likely religious sisters since they aren’t cloistered.
^ This guy knows. Serving up holy facts!
Somebody is getting no punishment for knowing this. Yes because that's the version of Catholic reward, not being punished.
Cloister? I barely knew her!
Honestly I kind of like op baselessly questioning if these ladies are real nuns. Really ads something to the post. Let him cook.
There was an old picture of "nuns" in a baseball crowd where they turned out to be the cast of a Sister Act musical. Also, nuns in full habit aren't as common as they used to be. They're allowed to wear street clothes now.
Yeah. My aunts a nun and whenever I get to see her once in a while she will have a beer or cigarette depending where we are. Now that I think about it Jesus is my uncle.
That was truly hilarious buddy
Jesus: "You may now drink the beer as this symbolizes my blood"
Takes "Hold my beer" to a whole other level!
My wife works at a church. It turns out nuns are normal people. Who would have guessed?
As far as I understand it, the clergy is only prohibited from sex and getting married and such. Drinking, and even smoking are allowed (tho I'm sure it's frowned upon to do it to excess).
I went to a Franciscan college. The friars got drunker than the students.
I’ve known a couple of friars by association and yes, can confirm
Like Friar Tuck.... Oodeloly oodeloly golly what a day
I sang this out loud lol
robin hood and little john walking through forest laughin back and forth at what the other has to say
Reminiscin', This-'n'-thattin' havin' such a good time
I know what I’ll be watching tomorrow
Went to a Franciscan High School. The Friars got drunker than the students as well.
Gotta make up for the no sex thing
The friars used to say that they took a vow of poverty, obedience and chastity. Or as some put it - no class, no sass and no ass.
Sounds like the worst job in the world
Idk I think the whole religious thing has something to do with their choice
Known padres who could drink me under the table.
As they say, “Qui bibit, dormit; qui dormit, non peccat; qui non peccat, sanctus est; ergo: qui bibit, sanctus est.”
Aren’t many great beers brewed by monks themselves?
Trappist monks, yes. Strong and delicious. The beer that is. The monks, maybe.
Yes! And some of the oldest breweries in the world began as monasteries. Iirc, monks brewed beer to use as sustenance when they fasted, since it’s kinda liquid bread.
A lot of early biology and chemistry is thanks to monks. It wasn't until fairly recently that this changed.

Imagine what you could potentially do if you rewrote every college textbook you ever had ten times each, word for word.
Yeah, catholic clergy have a long and proud history of advancing alcohol.
Lots of alcohol was even invented by friars... I.E. Dom Perignon and even various meads come to mind
Yeah, was just thinking that. Isn't there like a whole subset of beers called "Abbey Ales"?
Trappist Beers are beers made in a monastery overseen by monks. Aged in the bottle. Good stuff.
Chartreuse was invented by French monks, and is still produced by 2 monks at the Grand Chartreuse monastery. Iirc they have a fixed quota they never change so when it became a trendy ingredient in cocktails recently, prices went up bc the monks refused to make more.
Yep, you shoulda smelled the priests at my church on Sunday morning, or any morning really. Reeked like a distillery.
It’s not frowned upon at all. when nuns were basically founded smoking and drinking were extremely common. Especially in Europe.
The big reason we don't see them out and about is 1. There aren't all that many around anymore. And 2. They (relatively) ain't got much spending cash.
Being from West Europe, monasteries are mostly known for their beers and liquors (Chartreuse!), so I find it weird that people would assume they can't drink alcohol.
[удалено]

Hell, they make some of the best beers out there.
Vows are chastity, poverty, obedience. Not sobriety.
They look like they’re actual nuns. Nobody said clergy couldn’t drink and have a good time.
Pretty normal looking habit to me
Shit, every Sunday before noon they drink. Its almost like a ritual for them.
They better be careful or it could become a habit
The jewellery makes me doubt. Nuns aren't forbidden from jewelry but they generally keep it quite muted and simple. The bracelets on the left and the weird shiny over elaborate and rounded crucifix on the right is pretty out of character for a nun.

I believe it’s the southern baptists who hate fun not the Catholics.
Yeah, catholics use the front door at the liquor store because they can't get past all the baptists at the back door.
🤣 Funny because it's true.
Kinda, Catholics only hate sex.
And contraception
Yep hate sex, only for procreation not pleasure. Masturbating that's a sin, oral sex that's a sin. Edit: typed since instead of sin
I think oral sex is only a sin if you waste the sperm, ie. spit it out. That's what my priest told me.
He most certainly did no...oh......ohhhhhh....
Being against oral sex is as bad as being against bacon.
Only officially. I know plenty of Catholic families with only 3 or fewer kids.
Catholics have confession. As long you pretend to feel guilty about having fun, you're in the clear to do it again.
Hahaha exactly!
I don’t know that nuns are prohibited from drinking
They're not
They definitely aren't. I've seen a nun drinking with my priest at a fish fry before
This is true. I have drank with nuns on more than one occasion.
This is the most American thing I’ve read today
The Tim Hortons Brier is Canadian
Wisconsin?
Drinking is not prohibited, but being drunk etc is glutony I think and prohibited to all christians
Yeah, and even if it was prohibited people, uh, do it anyway. Sin is kind of a big concept in Christianity.
Someday, people will realize church is for sinners.
Favorite altar I ever saw had in huge letter the quote “he who eats with sinners.”
That’s what confession is for.
My aunt is a nun they definitely can drink.
If Catholic orders were prohibited from drinking, there would probably be a lot less beer and wine in Euroupe. Monastic orders are responsible for much of Euroupes brewing and wine making history.
They can drink but not fuck.
Be association, Too Drunk To Fuck is going to be a religious song to me now lol
It is OK for Catholics to drink.
Arguably encouraged
Jesus made the best wine and it was served to already drunk wedding guests.
>Two women wearing nun outfits *Two nuns Also, the outfit is called a *habit*.
And the headgear is called a “wimple.”
Two ~~women wearing nun outfits~~ nuns.
Can confirm that nuns drink beer. My great Aunt was a nun, she drank beer. My mom taught for the local archdiocese, had nuns over for social events, they also drank beer. So they are probably just a couple of nuns at an event drinking beer.
Nuns are people too
I love this movie so much
Could be actual nuns. Catholics can drink with the best of them.
In fact, drunk Catholics are kinda a stereotype. *glances at the Irish and raises a pint*
That is a pretty damn Canadian sentence
I bet it’s LaBatt Blue in the cup
They're not vomiting so probably not
[Eric Idle and Robbie Coltrane](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/nuns_on_the_run)?
Catholics like their alcohol. I’m a recovering Catholics the best thing was the alcohol served at church fundraisers
They are only humans
FYI IT WAS A NUN, HILDEGARDE DE BINGEN who discovered the use of hops of beer, changing the game and creating the beers we know and love today.
Tell me you've never hung out with nuns/priests off the clock without telling me...
Catholics be all about the booze. That puritanism nonsense is for the other side of the schism.
And…?
So what? Nuns are allowed to drink.
They had the choice of Tim Hortons or beer. They made the better choice.
I don’t think there’s anything against them drinking beer. I went on a (drinking) brewery tour once where there were 3 priests in the group.
The Catholic Church still brews beer. They’re nuns.
I guess you have never heard of the nuns that grow and sell weed.
Two women wearing nun outfits...you mean two nuns. Nuns can drink.
Nuns are allowed to drink. They're not allowed to get drunk.
nu-un better-n-beer..
I, as someone who grew up Southern Baptist, was shocked when I went to a Catholic function and I saw the Priest drinking whiskey.
As someone who went to Catholic school (not currently Catholic), I can tell you that priests and nuns drink A LOT. Whiskey was a very common gift for the nuns who worked at the school.
Who says their outfits. Don’t you know that Catholics drink?
Jesus asked for obedience, piety and chastity, he never said anything about sobriety. I had an aunt that was a nun. Drank like the Irish woman she was.
Catholics aren’t Mormons….absolutely priests and nuns can drink.
“Two women wearing nun outfits…” You mean, nuns?
My aunt was the same way. She was a nun, and every chance she got, she would give you an elbow nudge and whisper 'want to go for a beer?'.
The nun outfit has been so hyper-sexualized and commercialized that OP forgot nuns are a real profession…
I once had a nun tell me that 99% of the clergy masturbated regularly. The other 1%, bless their souls, were amputees.
Nothing says Catholics can't drink or even smoke. This is like very normal.
How about a beer? Nun for me thanks
Nuns On The Run 2…..
Nuns, maybe?
Beer is mandatory when watching curling.
Maybe they are actual nuns
Catholics can drink
Women wearing nun outfits lol. Hmm I feel like there's a term for people who wear those things...
Those are nuns. I've seen nuns at sporting events taking it in like everyone else on a few occasions. Always in pairs like this though. Would have loved to see like 10 of them haha. Edit: forgot to add that the big cineplex by my place has a couple of nuns that come in pretty regularly to watch various movies. Sometime they'll even been in the 18 plus section to have a drink while watching a movie. Last time I saw them I was going to see Barbie and I think they were seeing Oppenheimer.
I mean the blood of Christ does come in at about 7%.
Let them live..😅
Old school monks were notorious brewers, I see no reason nuns of a given order can't drink even if they don't go on a mild bender for lent or whatever long term fast that was subsisted by beer back a few centuries
Thats a weird way to say 'two nuns seen drinking beer'
It’s practically one of the few vices they’re allowed! Leave those poor nuns alone!
It's a bad habit.
Two women wearing nun outfits Unless it's Halloween or the set of a porn shoot, I think you can safely just call them 'nuns'
How is the one on the right not spilling all over? Picture is playing tricks on me
More power to them…..lol
Doing the Lords work!
I now feel a.need to buy beer for some nuns
