A Discipline of Drink

Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: CHAPTER III. The Church’s Discipline. jHE Church has been compared by her Divine Founder to a field in which weeds will grow amidst the wheat until the harvest. Yet if the weeds are tolerated it is for the sake of the wheat, or it is in the hopes that, by a miracle of God’s power and mercy, the weeds may even become wheat. The Church is ever labouring to make her children holy, not by her teaching only, but by her discipline. ” I have written to you,” says St Paul, ” not to keep company, if any man that is named a brother, be … a drunkard: . . . with such an one, not so much as toeat. . . . Put away the evil one from among yourselves” (i Cor. v. 1113). We have seen St Augustin discussing questions of disciplinehow to reform abuses; how to deal with the incorrigible. In the present chapter we have to inquire intothe treatment of drunkenness in later ages and other countries. It will be asked: What advice was given with regard to combating drunkenness ? Was there anything in Catholic antiquity like the modern system of administering the pledge ? I reply that we must here distinguish between the substance and the form. If by “administering the pledge ” we understand a popular or public enrolment of multitudes in societies, having as their special object to promote sobriety, then it is a novelty in the history of the Church.1 But if by taking the pledge we mean abstaining from the use of intoxicating drinks, either as a work of perfection, a remedy, or a penance, then it is by no means a novelty, but has been well known in all ages and countries. I can, perhaps, best explain the whole subject by distinguishing the different states and classes of men and women in the Church, and the different purposes for which abstinence was counselled or prescribed.

I was at a concert (outdoors) where there was a lot of pot smoke in the air, even though I wasn’t smoking it, will it be in my system and for how long?

It will be in your system and on your hair. If you weren’t smoking it then it will be out in a week at the most. Drink lots of antioxidants. It will speed up the natural filtering of your system. If you did smoke some, then up to 6 weeks depending on the potency and the length of time you inhaled.

There are couple of things which have hit the media and then a storm caused about them

Firstly was the smoking ban Jul/08 which banned tobacco from all catering establishments (as well as other indoor public places). This was deigned as the death of the coffeeshop, but of course it wasn’t/

Officially you cannot smoke a joint with tobacco in a coffeeshop any longer unless they have a room away from where staff are working. In practice things like tobacco substitutes have solved this issue.

Then more recently there has been a large discussion about "members-only" purchases at coffeeshops in order to combat the so called "drug tourism" issue, but this is mainly on the border of the Netherlands with Germany & Belgium

So in effect, you can still smoke within reason in Amsterdam. Of course most restaurants, cafe’s etc will ask you to point a joint out, but smoking in a coffeeshop (without tobacco), or smoking outdoors away from other people who might not appreciate it, well then it is not a big deal.
