I want to respond to nclib's exceedingly ignorant comment that only religious justifications exist for restricting the sale of alcohol. Aside from the obvious point that angus brought up, that Christianity is actually very pro-alcohol (one reason I can never be a Christian, I think drinking wine in church is deeply offensive), there are plenty of reasons to limit the sale of alcohol based on time for safety reasons. Baseball stadiums not selling beer in the 7th inning or later, or football games not selling beer after the 3rd quarter for example.
The idea that drunken people are dangerous and unruly is not some religious delusion.
