>1. You obviously have something against Christianity.  I have no

I hope it is OBVIOUS to the other readers of this group that I do
not have something against "Christianity," but something against
a government agency enforcing with a police force, the religious
beliefs of others. I object to the prohibition of selling liquor
on a SUNDAY; not the prohibition of selling liquor, e.g. because it may 
harm you.

I wanted to clarify this to the other readers that may have also looked
at this only briefly.

>It is a privledge that can be regulated by the state.

It seems that you misunderstand. I know the difference. I do not have a
constitutional right to drink. I do have a constitutional right to not
have people enforcing thier religious beliefs on me. For instance, laws
can be passed banning smoking, because the Constitution does not guarantee
smokers rights. But we are NOT banning smoking in public buildings because
it is IMMORAL, or any other religious reason, but a demonstratable health 
hazard.

>3. You are not the only person that lives in Georgia, there are

Exactly. That is why we are having a discussion. That is also why I 
mentioned that the Federal government had to send in troops to 
change the laws of Georgia, because the majority of voters in Georgia
voted to limit the rights of others. (Jim Crow laws)
