Kosher/Jewish Wine

[Thomas]

Van the Man,

Just to set the record somewhat straight, re Muslims and alcohol: The Koran does not forbid alcohol, its use is discouraged, and in one statement wine is promised in paradise to Muslims who live the pious life on earth -- "milk and honey...and wine..." Afterall, it was the Spanish Moors who refined the already-known process of brandy distillation, and the word alcohol has Arabic roots.

State governments ban alcohol.
