"I read a recipe for fruit cordials a while ago. It went something like this:
Mix vodka and sugar.
Fill a jar with whole fruit.
Pour sugared vodka over fruit.
Let sit for a few weeks.
The auther went on to cite his aunt's claim that eating the 80 proof fruit afterwards helps her arthritis.
Not for pleasure, then, is it? Nope, it's for health."
1 Timothy 5:23 (KJV; emphasis added): 'Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.'
And even today, physicians say that alcohol taken in moderation can actually be beneficial. Years ago, doctors used to prescribe a few bottles of Guinness (or similar dark stouts such as Mackeson) a week to certain patients, for it's high iron content. The medical proof is there for everyone to see.
And as your own 'Word of God' even recommends drinking alcohol, then you - and your 'beliefs' - fail. Further proof that everyone else (My best friend who is a Christian likes an occasional pint in his local pub; even a rare nip of Gin or Scotch, especially at Christmas) are right, and you're...:

But then, that's right-wing fundie Christians all over: they FAIL at life.
