simmy: Cars are not meant to kill, but driving at 180km/hr surely will. sooner than later. A pint of beer is made to relax the nerves; a barrel will knock you out. It's all about moderation. Are you one of those that think Jesus changed water into non-alcoholic wine ? Wake up Ever heard of non-poisonous poison? |

The one who makes it, the one who transport it, the one who sells it and the one who buy it for use, all are in the same conditions. If there is law of God against it, it is bad, get away from it. |

olabowale: Hypocrite! Does that preclude those who prohibit the sale of Alchohol thanks to sharia and are yet ever so happy to obtain "their share" of the proceeds from VAT that from that same banned commodity? Is there no law against alchohol in the sharia law? Why are you and other "moderate" muslims drinking alchohol, or the law of 'god' only applies in the land of muslims and not the land of the infidels? |

[b]I believe working in Brewery/Tobacco coy. Working with them can be a stepping stone to a better or desired place.Also it doesn,t mean that ur will be smoking or taking Alcohol drink. what matter most is to have focus on the task giving to u.And believe in God for a better place. |
Re: Is It Wrong To Work In A Brewery Or Tobacco Company? by simmy(m): 5:16pm On Oct 06, 2006 |
rhea, y are u jumping to conclusions? the basic concept is this, BEER /alchohol at WHATEVER level will intoxicate, relaxation is only 1 of the symptoms of intoxication, vomitting,dizyness and a general lack of coordination are others A MOTOR CAR was primarily made to transport people from one place to another! thts y its called an ACCIDENT!!! So your analogy is incorrect Ps, driving at 180km/hr will noyt neccesarily kill |

haba!!! A christian must not be yoked with anything that intoxicates. You may equally ask yourself if it would be ok for Jesus Christ to work in the tobacco company. What would he preach to those into drinking and smoking. We are made in the image of Christ, He is our standard not any mere man! |

Jondee: Yet he turned water into wine (beer, probably?) |

Ynot: lmao beer is not wine now. |

Life is generally moderation. whatever u do. there should be an inner witness with your heart that it's either wrong or right. people dont have to tell you something is right before you know it's right. take a case of 2 persons, one can kill and feel no remorse, the other probably kill by accident and his/her conscience is killing him/her. in my opinion. if you feel within you that's its wrong or right then do that which pleases you.but, God is the first to be considered before pleasing yourself. |

Radiant: The point is, he turned water into some sort of drink. Whatever that drink is, those guys of then were addicted (intoxicated if you will) to it so much so that they wanted more. He could've sent them home after they finished the first batch but no!, He decided to give them more and more. This is not saying He participated in the drinking spree but, he encouraged it. I bet you if there were cars then, there would have been a headline "DUI: 40 people lost their life in a car accident after partying with Jesus" |

Re: Is It Wrong To Work In A Brewery Or Tobacco Company? by segedoo(m): 4:02pm On Oct 09, 2006 |
that's just being plain naive. but then is there something wrong with being naive? nothing that i know of the issue is not whether working in a tobacco coy or brewery is right or wrong rather it is whether you go ahead and work there when u think it's wrong. then it becomes wrong. remember the issue of eating foods sacrificed to idols or not? |
Re: Is It Wrong To Work In A Brewery Or Tobacco Company? by Radiant(f): 5:43pm On Oct 09, 2006 |
When jungle mature, and you're left with only these two options, won't you take the job regardless of if it's wrong or not.God himself said, "do not be over wise". Na u know o |

Pls lets stop the use of derogatory phrases,sentences against God.Because u've once being attacked on your religion does not mean you have to treat some other oppositonal believers to your faith with contempt.Ok.What gave u the assurance that your religion does not practice atheism,incest e.t.c. What we say on this board depicts our individual personalty,our background and even the acceptance/rejection of our religion by others.Lets respect ouselves. If a minister of culture is well cultured he/she will not speak against Deities. Saying this worships, bible, money e.t.c is not fair, it shows that the speaker would be a violent human being. Not your tone or your philosophical / points/views or how u are able to use slanderous words against others will change the whole world to your own religion, rather it will make people to avoid it like a plague.Be wise with words .Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee |

it is not only wrong for a christian to work for a tobacco company it is unpatroitic for any true Nigerian and any sane Human beign to work for a death broker like BAT if omnly you know how many deaths they hav caused and how they havwe exposed you and or your loved one to the danger of deiying then you would not consider workinfg for them as an option even if it were the only one left. |
