Alcoholism is as much a disease as is diabetes.
But you just keep doing you
Appears to me Alcoholism is no different than drug addiction....both often used to self medicate because the addiction demands it when abused til one is addicted.....doesn’t only destroy body organs...but affects the brain as well.
Neither would I consider either a disease as it’s self inflicted....rather once one indulges some are more likely to become addicted than others just by their own particular nature.....it’s still a choice and lots of warnings from people before it becomes an addiction....
Renalcoholism is just as much a sin as diabetes:
There are two types of diabetes. One is inherited. You get it when young and healthy, even (my slender active niece got it at age 9) it is a genetic disorder and no amount of self control can stop it.
The other is self induced where you eat so poorly and sit so much your pancreas doesn’t function.
One is a sin imo the other is not.
As for “you just keep being you” what is that about? My opinion is not intended to offend but enlighten. If you can explain to me how Parkinson’s and alcoholism are in the same plane, or why God forbids drunkenness but does not forbid getting the flu, say on. This is an opinion forum. Condescending comments are not helpful.
