Guest T-Bone Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 (edited) I have a high tolerance, but its not supernatural. It came from years of hard core alcohol abuse. (I had some issues and was self medicating) Now I only occasionally imbibe.

Aloysius Posted December 4, 2005 Author Share Posted December 4, 2005 well, anyway, my test of whether I've gone too far consists of two things: would I be able to structure out a whole rosary at this point and/or pay attention to a mass if it were being said? and, is my rational mind currently capable of contemplating coherently the mysteries of the faith? i seem to be able to do all that with my supernatural tolerance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laudate_Dominum Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 I tend to have clear phases of inebriation. If I stand up and feel a bit light headed, I figure its time to lay off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aloysius Posted December 4, 2005 Author Share Posted December 4, 2005 see I donno, to me (again: theoretical, lol) mere lightheadedness or something isn't the line. the line would be impairing your intellect or inhibitions too much... I don't think of the physical effects being real morally bad unless you're going to be driving, that's part of the fun (trying to maintain your composure is awesome, I actually think it helps me be more aware of keeping my composure during my most sober times!)
