Basically, the first miracle performed by Christ in any of the gospels is when he turns the water into wine at a wedding celebration. (At the intercession of his mother, actually.)
In my Catholic tradition understanding this event highlights a number of very important points for later theology.
It establishes the precedent of intercession by the saints. i.e. The Trinity finds it acceptable to have requests for its favor to be presented to it through others.
It also makes clear that there's no divine disfavor upon celebration.
And most importantly to my mind, it emphasizes that alcohol is an approved method for celebration.
So, how do the fundamentalists get around these things?
Seventh Day Adventists shun (officially) all celebrations, reject intercession, and view drinking alcohol as one short step above baby rape, but below kicking beggars.
Baptists reject intercession and drinking alcohol - to the point where some of them use the presence of wine in the Ceremony of the Eucharist as one more reason to point to the decadence of the Roman church.
I'd love to have some factual answers from people about how these religions, famous for insisting on following direct, literal interpretations of the Bible, reconcile this apparent contradiction.
