Topic/poll

Just want to get a sense of the opinions here on GS.

P.S. Please include the verse and chapter name when referring to content in  a religious book.

Don't go saying the Bible says drinking is wrong unless you can prove it.

No. The act of drinking is perfectly fine. It's the actions of some people that drink that are immoral. There is nothing wrong with drinking as long as it is done at the proper time and place and is done in moderation.

If you're a Puritan, maybe. But otherwise, everyone has a drink now and then. My parents pretty much only drink on our holy holidays and they have wine.

Irresponsible.  Anyways, I said usually.  Drinking and not getting drunk... I guess it's sorta ok, but that stuff does damage to your body.

Alcoholism sucks ass when you hurt other people but I suppose that just drinking itself is not immoral.

Morals are morally wrong. Also last time I checked, we kind of needed water to survive.

Alcohol has caused too many deaths to count, and it should be only consumed in very small amounts at a time.

I've never met a person in my school who talks about "that party tht one time where they had that one drink People should not be allowed to drink if all they're going to do is get drunk, and do something stupid, like knock someone up. However, if you can have a drink or two, and then stop, you go right ahead.

How can it be morally wrong, its always been around, even Jesus drank alcohol.

Most deaths caused by alcohol are caused by losers drinking too much

You're damaging your body for no good reason other than to temporarily supress feelings, or more stupidly, just for the sake of having fun.

No.  At least not in moderation.  But drinking and driving can be.

If I ever see you drunk at a party, I'm robbing you when you pass out. THAT'S fun. Petty theft is my anti-drug.

Presumeably if he's drunk, he's already found his way into some chick looser than your logic.

I think using drugs to alter your feelings / Behaviour in any way is wrong. Besides, I see how everyone started drinking and smoking just because their friends did, and I feel sorry for people that become addicted to something just because of that...
