If you are a Christian, can you tell me your denomination and whether or not you ever consume any alcohol. Just curious.

Baptist. Don't drink. Don't condemn those who do, but I do think restraint is good. Moderation in all things.

Yes I'm a Christian and I drink wine. Remember that Jesus turned water into wine at the wedding feast in Cana. There is nothing wrong with drinking in moderation.

I'm a Christian and believe that "wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise." (Proverbs 20:1) I find no need to let a drink mess with my mind.
Besides, even if I were the type to drink, I can't, because being chronically addicted to alcohol runs in both sides of my family; at least 3 generation died because of the bottle.

I am a member of the LDS Church. I do not drink, but I did when I was in college. For one year. Then I gave it up. I didn't have any more fun drunk than I did sober, so I figured, what's the point?

Yes, and yes, I like to have a glass of wine every once in awhile. I also don't mind having a couple of beers with friends, or a couple rum and Cokes.
I'm nondenominational, but attend a Baptist church.

Yes, and yes. I am Mormon in affiliation, but nondenominational in belief. My specific beliefs aren't set in stone, as I continue to learn and evolve each day.
I have never been drunk though. Drinking isn't described as a sin, lest Jesus be a sinner (after all, critics called him a winebibber). Drunkenness, however, is. Even if sin didn't exist though, I probably wouldn't get drunk, because it's certainly not "being my best self", which I believe in irrespective of my religious beliefs.

I am Protestant by birth and education, but not practising as I don't believe in the Church.
I seldom drink, but this doesn't have to do with believe - I just don't like alcohol.

I am, I belong to a Nazarene Church, and, though I have consumed alcohol in the past, I don't now.

Yes, No. I can't stand the stuff and don't like what it does to me. My drink of choice is sparkling grape juice on ice!
