I was paraphrasing. But the idea seemed to me to be "Don't take any responsibility for your actions and trust in god and all will be cool.

See, I have an issue with that one really. You are not powerless over alcohol. You *chose* to have a drink.

However, I am really glad for anyone it has helped. Just making some points.
