[edit] Relationship with religion

Most practicing Bahá'ís, Brahmins,Meivazhi-ites, Pillays, Mormons, Hare Krishnas, Muslims, Scientologists, Seventh-day Adventists, Christian Scientists, Jains, and Sikhs can be considered to be teetotalers as it is a belief of all of their religions. However, there are some exceptions.

Many Christians such as Methodists, Quakers and Baptists are often associated with teetotalism due to their traditionally strong support for temperance movements and prohibition. Abstinence is not a religious requirement, but the tradition is strong enough to make ritual and recreational alcohol consumption a controversial issue among some members. Members of the Salvation Army make a promise on joining the movement to observe life-long abstinence from alcohol, but they don't consider partaking of alcohol to be inherently wrong. Catholicism, the Orthodox Churches, and Anglicanism all require wine in their central religious rite of the eucharist, and while many Protestant churches often allow grape juice or dealcoholized wine in their eucharistic celebrations, only a few Protestants require a non-alcoholic beverage as official policy. (See Christianity and alcohol.)
