"Britain's health authority, for example, suggests not exceeding 14 drinks per week." Interesting. I shall do more research. Two drinks a day is better than six a day per day. The movies from the 1940's and 1950's always had suits, dresses, drinks and smokes with cool hats, intense drama and nice cars. Hollywood back then always set the trends.

Our fam is a teetotaler Family. The choice works for us. We don’t Explain to others why we think it’s wise, unless someone asks directly. We go to weddings and just act normal and order water, or non-alcholoc beverages, Works fine for us. We do have some lovely bottles of wine we’ve received as gifts from folks who don’t know that about us - we receive graciously and always put in a place of honor, because the Giver is the True Gift.

Teetotaler here, married to a formerly active alcoholic, banning alcohol is the last thing we need. Anyone can make it and the crooks would have a field day.

Educate people, certainly, but prohibition is a stupid thing

“And yes, I’ve had a large glass of white tonight, thank you very much.”

White what? White lightning? Blood of white people? White wine?

"I’d rather check out earlier and have a little enjoyment along the way rather than preserve myself like a mummy and languish for years in the care of the best caretakers minimum wage can buy."

I think that the preponderance of Humanity over the millennia agree...

Wymyns in the smoke and booze laced 60’s/70’s seemed to be slimmer, on average, than today.

Guys likely too.

Gin sucks. Everything else is pretty good.

“a bird in the hand in worth two in the bush”

But a hand in a bird’s bush is worth twice as much.

“It’s a scourge upon mankind, with no other drug comparing to it’s destruction. “

Having seen what meth did to my small town I will politely disagree.

Lumping everybody together most certainly will show harmful effects although all the harm is on a tiny number..

and after all is said and done,Jesus made water into wine.
