Moses a beer drinker?

[Chris.]

I watched a documentary on tv lasw week called "How beer saved the world"
http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/how-beer-saved-the-world/

In it it says Egyptians as a regular part of their diet drank beer. I checked it on the net and It seems to be valid.

Moses was an Israelite but raised Egyptian so that would mean Moses was possibly a beer drinker?

Yeah they lived on it in the middle ages too handy, It was the only way they could drink the water. They had no idea that the boiling process in making ale was what made it safe to drink the bad water that went into making it.

Sorry, but I've never been able to understand America's fascination with beer. It's like cigarettes. You have to learn to like beer, and so many people seem so eager and willing to learn how to love it.

Okay, add beer drinkers to my list of people I've offended, lol...coffee drinkers, bikers, the tattooed, reality and talent show addicts, young people, old people, German potato salad eaters, 'Hardcastle and McCormick' fans...oh wait, I'm one of them...they're cool.

America's fascination with beer goes back centuries. Those early settlers in what became the USA (and Canada) had roots in England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, France, Germany (etc) where ale/beer was a household staple.

But the ale/beer drinking goes back to the BC centuries. Archaeologists have found evidence of ale/beer making in the 4000 BC and earlier.

I'm with you, though, Jethro. Rare is the occasion I drink beer. It's just never been my preference either.

Remember.... you can't please everyone 100% of the time. And, what is most important anyway: You love and follow our Lord and His word. That alone makes you A-Ok in my book, for what it's worth.

Both of my grandmothers were from a Pa Dutch sect called "Dunkard Brethren". It's kinda like a foot washing variation of Amish.

We always use to laugh about "No drinking, no dancing, and no playing cards"

The funny thing is , the older I get, the closer I get to that mindset

No beer for me either

...and that's worth a lot to me.

I would rather drink beer than stagnant water. Besides have you seen what fish do in water?

Early in this thread I was trying to think of a polite way to say that it probably tastes the same going in as coming out. (Notice I said 'probably').


I think you, me, joethemechanic, and AirDancer oughta get this tattoo:




...Okay, maybe not.

 

[reba]

NOT!

 

[AirDancer]

Wouldn't want that as a tattoo, Jethro....

....but....

....what about having that on t-shirts????

 

[Jethro Bodine]

NOT!

Okay, how 'bout this:





...right there on your upper arm.

 

[Jethro Bodine]

Wouldn't want that as a tattoo, Jethro....

Me neither. If you've been following the tattoo thread, we're not exactly into tattoos, lol.

....but....

....what about having that on t-shirts????

Now you're cookin'!

Would you put this on ice please, thank you.

If Moses was a drinker, it would have to be Heineken...

i hate beer. its so nasty i cant even stand the smell.

dont ask how i know i just do.

I don't like beer either. I've never known exactly what it is I detest in beer, but there is something in it that I just can't stand. After moving to Idaho where there are a lot of hop farms, I think it very well may be the hops.

I used to like drinks like wine and mixed drinks but alcohol is such a migraine trigger for me that now I stick with the mouthful of wine I get with communion... and that's it.

Pepsi is my drink of choice! That and good old fashioned Sweet Tea!
