Often times it's the non-drinkers who imagine that it is a moral judgement when someone else doesn't drink. Perhaps this is because they secretly feel that they are making a wrong decision but are doing so because the group is all doing it together. They then see one person not drinking as an affront because deep down they are judging themselves.

If you are truly comfortable with your own decision to drink you will not see someone else's decision not to drink as a threat.

How uncomfortable with their decision to drink must be the people who downvoted you. They cant argue beacuse they know they are wrong. Intellectual cowardice, plain and simple.
