The COKE thing is a MORMON made up Doctrine of Man.
If you do NOT say otherwise; then I am a LIAR!
Look it up. I dare ya!
"Is it against Church standards to drink cola beverages or any other beverage containing caffeine?"
Bishop H. Burke Peterson, who was the First Counselor in the Presiding Bishopric at the time answered:
"'And again, verily I say unto you, all wholesome herbs God hath ordained for the constitution, nature, and use of man.' (D&C 89:10)
"We should notice the word wholesome and always consider the things that we take into our body as to whether they are wholesome or not. The scripture continues, 'All these to be used with prudence and thanksgiving.' (D&C 89:11)
I did look it up and still wondering about it. PD do you drink cola drinks? If not why not?
