w about the BATHING in strong liquor? Is THAT part still right? (or WRONG??)

Both the modern and 1835 versions of the D&C claim that bathing in liquor is an acceptable practice. Though I wouldn't recommend it....

BTW, the Mormon position on drinking alcohol seems a bit odd. If you point out that even Jesus drank wine and that His first miracle was turning water into wine, they usually give you some sort of absurd justification that is not in any way based in reality. For instance, many Mormons and especially their missionaries will often claim that wine was really just grape juice back then and so it was ok to drink it back then. (A patent lie.) (Mormons also ignore the fact that Joseph Smith drank liquor even after he received the Word of Wisdom, and the LDS's own scriptures say that its ok to use wine in their Sacrament meetings....a strange contradiction, I suppose.)
