Re: Social drinking?
If you take one bite you are on your way to being a glutton.
If you eat food you are a sinner.

If you use the " logic " of one or two on here, that would be an easy conclusion to come to.

Today that is not the case. We don't need to drink wine to purify our water, or to help with our stomach ailments, because there are other options open to us. Today, because of the problem with the alcohol, addiction, and the door that alcohol opens that is hard to close - we choose not to drink, simply because we know that alcohol starts on a slippery slope. Since it is not a necessity to our way of life, we just avoid it.

They didn't just drink wine becau se water was bad. Understand water was bad because of overcrowding
They were drinking way befor.e that
