Question

Answer 1

Hey Daniel,

First, I am not a prude - or Baptist, for that matter!

Second, I drink - too much, sometimes!

The reasons that you shouldn't drink:

Alcohol is a solvent (you use a form of grain alcohol ((The kind you drink, just much stronger)) to clean paint brushes after using oil based paint - If alcohol dissolves oil, what do you think it does to your system? )

Alcohol makes your liver work extra hard to remove it from your system. Your liver removes poisons - If your liver removes poisons, and alcohol is so great, why is your liver removing it?

When you work out a particular muscle, it gets bigger, except the liver, when you "work out" your liver, it becomes scarred.

Alcohol impairs judgment! Everything from your ability to drive to your ability to remember. Can you imagine trying to get out of a burning building when you are drunk?

All that I have said - there are some good things about alcohol!

Red wine provides lipids that help your blood carry oxygen as well as help your body fight certain forms of disease.
Beer is said to be beneficial in aiding digestion.
The Actor George Burns had a Whiskey on the rocks, every night, and he lived to be 99!

So I guess the good news is...

IN MODERATION!

Good Drinking!

Answer 2

I also am not a Baptist, although by 2006 standards, I might be a little prudish.

Alcohol is an addictive drug. Not everyone who drinks will become an addict (alcoholic), of course, but there's no way of being sure if you will or won't. There seems to be a genetic component, so if you have any relatives with this problem, you are definitely at risk.

People do stupid and often violent things when they drink. They beat their wives and children. They drive and mess up people's lives.

Now an occasional beer or glass of wine or drink won't kill you, but I would rather not mess with intoxicants - see the word 'toxic' there? - but it is a personal decision. I am 1/2 French and that side of the family are champion wine drinkers, who find me eccentric in the extreme.

I just find it beneath my dignity as God's daughter to use drugs and get stupid.

What people? alchohol can have adverse affects, and some people cannot mentally handle alchohol. in some people it causes depression. but for the most part it's used for a good time.

Answer 4

Jesus' first miracle was to turn water into wine.
Wine helps with digestion.
There is nothing wrong with drinking alcohol ... if you are of legal age to drink.

There is something wrong with drinking in excess.
There is something wrong with driving under the influence.

Why do people say not to? Because some people believe it is evil. And there are people out there who do drink too young, in excess, and drive under the influence.

Answer 5

One may say "Because it is too good and humans will always resist the best" But the fact is it is a mood altering drug, addictive, gives suicide ideas in advanced states of addiction, destroys liver and many other things including marital relations.

Answer 7

Alcohol is an intoxicant. Once one starts consuming-there is no control on it and one gets drunk-loses consciousness and is unaware of the surroundings. Alcohol enters the blood-stream when consumed and end with up with kidney failure and many diseases consequently.
