Water was filled with diseases and germs back then
Psalm 104:15And wine which makes man’s heart glad, So that he may make his face glisten with oil, And food which sustains man’s heart.
It is true that there was bad water back “then”; though they had no concept of germ theory, folks could make the connections between bad water sources and disease. Yet Psalms 104 indicate that God had allowed wine to provide some solace for the troubles men go thru. He hated drunkenness and other places in scripture indicate that! Paul told Timothy to drink no more water but wine for the cure of the “infirmities of the stomach”.
Hence my position on alcohol!
I’ve reported my postings as being unkind to you to the moderators. A couple I think have been removed. I’ve made no complaints about yours. I think they should stay posted as you have written them!

These threads have become the new Sungirl vs. the cat haters, Inspector Harry Callahan vs. sinkspur, and A+Bert vs. everybody form of entertaiment that I miss about FR. Thanks!
I meant Gargantua and myself...not you. I beg your pardon!
