Talk:Religion and alcohol

This article needs work
It's biased, far too short and not up to Wikipedia's standards. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.193.198.4 (talk) 06:47, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

How is there no mention of Mormonism (LDS)? That seems a major oversight. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.51.187.214 (talk) 18:14, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Contested material
The section about Islam does not include any references. It totally contradicts a similar session about Islamic dietary laws also on Wikipedia. That means that either of the two sessions is far from comprehensive. The author appears to mention his own opinion, void of citations, rather than an Encyclopedic complete survey of the opinions, showing which is mainstream and which is an exception. The closing statement of that section "it is by seeing the actions that people committed... " is a pure opinion without any citations or verification as to where the author reached that conclusion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Helalfy (talk • contribs) 07:13, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

Jainism- As Jainism was founded well before the common era and the discovery of microorganisms. Did they change their policy on alcohol at some point after this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.225.80.81 (talk) 08:18, 23 August 2016 (UTC)
 * I think a better question would be this: yeast, used in fermentation, is a fungus.  If they can eat mushrooms they can drink alcohol.  We need a clearer source of the prohibition.Theroguex (talk) 06:16, 9 November 2016 (UTC)

Contemporary Judaism
... totally americocentric through the influence of current American evangelists which have an overproportionally loud voice in the population. Judaism outside of the U.S. mostly does not condemn drinking alcoholic beverages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.141.45.66 (talk) 20:53, 5 March 2020 (UTC)

Shinto
I want to make Draft:Omiki into an article. It is not merely alcohol in Shinto and I do not believe it simply belongs on this page, it is a specific set of rituals. MaitreyaVaruna (talk) 20:53, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Sprituality
As a non-denominational form of religion, which is based on faith and wisdom, in its pure form also denounces alcohol and drug use. 98.223.121.11 (talk) 02:46, 29 July 2022 (UTC)


 * This is an interesting perspective, Do you have a source to back it up? If so we will include it in the article Immanuelle 💗 (please tag me) 18:19, 29 July 2022 (UTC)

Quotes from the Vedas
Could someone double-check the quotes from the Ṛgveda? I can't seem to find them. Might be my mistake, I don't know. 76.64.127.46 (talk) 02:45, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
