We went camping in Devil's Den this past weekend. Since we forgot to bring beer, Abby went into "town" to see if she could come up with some while I was setting up the tent in scattered rain. After over an hour she finally returned from West Fork, Arkansas empty handed. Turns out the beer couldn't be bought because the churches had bought up all the liquor licenses in that town. I don't know if that is even possible, but even the idea raises several points. First and most importantly, this is the classic case of Christ against culture. Normally this is done through political power. However, here it is done through the free market- capitalism at its best.
Furthermore, what a stand to take, churches! Good job on establishing the right standards.
