Paul says in 1 Cor 6:12: All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

Jazi, I just wanted to pop in here and thank you for some of the info and links you have posted. I have lurked here and have found them very useful. As far as your topic (I know I'm long past your posting), no, alcohol is not an enemy or inherently evil. It is a good thing for those who know how to drink it as it was intended. It is simply not for me and others like me to be able to do that anymore. I wonder why it is that only some people have this "problem" with alcohol. I assume it is genetic biologically. But when I think of it in spiritual terms, in terms of my faith, I happen to view it as my cross to bear. That which tempts me but if I resist I become a stronger, better person.

Hi all,
I am relatively new to MWO and a very practicing Catholic. I was delighted when I discovered this on MWO!

According to the dates of the last post, there hasn't been much activity on this thread? If so, it's a real shame... I am 2 days AF and would love to hear from other Catholics on how their discipleship to Our Lord and their confidence in the intercessions the Virgin Mary have helped them in their struggles with AL.
