Did you know that if alcohol was invented today, they would make it illegal, it is only because it is traditional do they let it remain. Also the USA banned alcohol, it was known the prohibiton. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prohibition_i...e_United_States

But because people were so addicted to alcohol, and people still drank it anyway, they made it legal again. They say its fine to cut our hair, but we know its not. Scientists don't know it all yet. Aswell as physical problems alcohol creates, it absolutely desecrates the soul. It causes suffering slowly, but surely.

Numerous studies have suggested that moderate alcohol drinking helps to reduce the likelihood of heart disease. The so-called Mediterranean diet, which includes a larger intake of wine, has been credited with lower rates of heart disease in those countries, despite a higher intake of saturated fats.

Yes but there are better ways of reducing heart disease than drinking alcohol. Alcohol makes you dehydrated. Even in short amounts, it alters you central nervous system, and consciousness level. Alcohol is a depressant, ofcoarse you can recover from it, but why poision yourself in the first place? Thats like saying im going to cut off my hair, because it will just grow back, in the same way, why do we recover after drinking alcohol. You might not even get a hangover, but our levels of awareness drop, the reason we come back to normal after a while, is because we are suppose to be normal. If we were supposed to be drunk, we would stay that way. But even little amounts of alcohol changes your perception on things. So it might not be that bad as to make you kill or rape someone, but still why even poison yourself a little bit? This means if someone forced alcohol into you, you would become even more unstable. Then if you didn't drink any at all.

And it is like saying im going to cut my skin off today, it will grow back tomorow why do i care, but why does it grow back? because it is suppose to be there. In the same way we are suppose to be conscious and aware. If you alter that state, then that means you are not living in the way God intended for you. We are suppose to be aware, to keep our moral value. If we have had alcohol, even the smallest of decisions become difficult. That is why they say don't drive after you drink, because even minute levels alter your judgement. Alcohol supresses metabolism of glucose in the brain.

And seriously who is going to say "i only drink alcohol to reduce heart disease" Nobody does that. Since it is not a great way to do this. That is like the people who smoke because it helps them to reduce weight. Yes it might do this, but there are better ways to lose weight than smoke, plus smoking has many unwanted side effects, same as alchohol.

Complex findings reduced to speculative sound byte headlines that alcohol may to help with one specific aspect of one organ, does not equate it to being good for the whole organism or species.

Numerous studies have shown that irreversibly poisoning your liver in moderation, sustaining nominal brain damage and contributing to the social acceptance of a mind altering drug that is strongly linked to child abuse, deaths from accidents and suicides, breakdown of families, and violent crime helps to reduce the liklihood of heart disease.

The health benefits of red wine come from a chemical called trans-resveratrol.

Trans-resveratrol has been isolated and is now available as a health supplement, so there is no real need to drink wine for the health benefits alone.

It's a pretty amazing chemical, if all the hype is to be believed.
