Ah, realism:

I went to Mass today. The priest was talking about people who have lost their way and referred to "people who get drunk too often." It's nice to know that my religion approves of getting drunk occasionally.

See, that's the thing with Catholicism. Mostly, sinning is doing anything to excess. So drinking is fine. Getting trashed three nights a week is not. Gambling is OK. Losing the house at roulette is not. If only the Church could adopt this attitude towards everything. That would be a religion that I wouldn't have such a hard time with.
