Augustine and lifestyle codes
It occurs to me to wonder whether those Christians who object to dancing, the cinema, euchre cards, alcoholic beverages and a host of other things would be able to affirm the Augustinian statement I cited from Solzhenitsyn a few days ago. My guess is that they would have difficulty doing so, since they implicitly assume that the antithesis between good and evil runs between nondancing and dancing, between refusing and imbibing wine, and so forth.
