I call BS!

There's nothing like a good tall tale. The taller the better. You've got to love sitting there tipping back beers as an old-timer talks about the 4 ton fish he once caught.

Who is The Greatest Christian Drinking Country?

It is a celebration of solidarity and a celebration of global Christianity. In honor of this day, I have ranked the top 10 Christian drinking countries. That is, the countries who have contributed the most to Christianity AND to drinking, my two areas of expertise. Both areas will be weighed and preference will be given to well rounded contestants. The list represents my opinion and I hope you will argue vigorously with me.
