I think that one is for the Mormons? I'm like 85% sure they think caffeine is against their religion.
im an exmo, yeah that's basically it. The "doctrine" we get that from says:
this was "interpreted" as caffeine specifically, probably because the cult leaders didn't want to give up hot cocoa.
Would iced coffee be okay then? Or they decide hot meant caffeine?
Iced coffee is also not allowed if it has caffeine
It's religion, so it doesn't have to make any sense, that's what's great about it.
Yeah, that one's a Mormon thing. The rule only covers coffee and tea if you want to be pedantic about it, though there are many 'spirit of the law' type people who avoid caffeine entirely.
Correct.
