Wishing there was a socially acceptable way to buy rum for cakes – This is from a blog called “Stuff Christians Like” and although I call myself a Christian, I think I call Christians hypocrites more. Comments to blog poster: You’re ingesting rum, a hard liquor. Regardless of it’s form, you’re ingesting it. If it’s against your faith and you’re trying to bend the rules, you’re a hypocrite. You can’t bend the rules of your faith and think it’s magically okay now.
