no, they are the same issue. Don't elevate one above the other.
Pro 20:1 ¶ Wine [is] a mocker, strong drink [is] raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.
the difficult thing for both is moderation.

They're not the same at all. In the bible, alcohol use is encouraged. However, drunkeness is prohibited. There is no such encouragement of mind altering drugs such as marijuana...in fact, as my previous post shows there is a prohibition against drug use by God.

I guess we can agree to disagree. Alcohol is a drug by any definition of the term. Moderation is encouraged, overindulgence is chastised. Look what happened to Noah's son over Noah's falling down drunk episode. It's been busting families from the dawn of human history.
