    I want to break something everytime you post more than 2 lines Charles, but I just read the 2 first lines instead, and from what I got out of it you are saying that "(people < 21) + alcohol = bad" I don't agree, "(people < 13) + alcohol = bad" now that one I agree to.

    Drink alchol without eating can lower your blood sugar leve enought to kill you very fast. Blood sugar level or 21 milgram/ .1 liter can cause you to enter than coman which you never wake up from. Even normal people who donot need to take inslin can die from low blood sugar level. That father who allow that 2 year old baby to drink than enought beer that it blood sugar level went drow so much that the baby almost die is unfit to be a father..

    Normal blood sugar level is between 80 milgram/.1 liter to 120 milgram/ .1 liter of blood.

    Alcohol was once sugar... but it goes through a process called 'fermenting.'

    ... And now it's germ shit.

    Naturally, we don't want teens to have sex at an early age. It just means that the birth rates will skyrocket. China had to enforce laws concerning childbirth because of similar issues. After all, nothing stinks like a thick crowd of Chinese.

    Almost all food you eat and most non-water drink are turn into sugar by your body. Sugar is the scource of energy your body run on. Alochol isnot turn into sugar by your body and it stop your liver from relase store sugar to your body. One little drink doesnot do this but drink nothing but hard liqurad 24 or more hour straight without eating than entire healthly meal the chip and other
    such stuff at the bar counter doesnot apply as than healthly meal.

    You're right, alcohol isn't sugar. It's undergone serious chemcial reactions that have altered it to a far different organic compound. But all alcohol also has large amounts of other carbohydrates in it that can be burned in your body for energy. Alcohol also tastes good. So it wins. And I'll have you know that bar nuts are an important part of a balanced diet, almost as important as the roll barnuts play in a barmaid's protein intake.

    Alcohol does not taste good why do you think people mix it with all kinds of shit? It is to hide the alcohol taste. Ever tasted 90 percent moonshine? Alcohol does not taste good.

    It all smells like piss to me. One of the five reasons I've never consumed an alchoholic beverage.

    Well, I won't leave you wondering then:

    1. Sobriety saves money

    2. It's against my religion. Well, consumption in excess anyway, and why drink if not to get drunk?

    3. Drunk people piss me off

    4. Drinking leads to poor decisions

    1. I have money
    2. That's why I made up my own.
    3. Yea, that is a good point, but I only drink with smart drunks.
    4. As long as there are people there to make sure you're ok that's the fun part.
    5. I have tasted 90% alcohol. Tastes like lysterine. Except it's not minty. And I like lysterine. Except for the minty.

    1. I'm with Blinky.

    2. Hail Odin!

    3. In my experience, the drunker the merrier.

    4. Poor decisions are sometimes fun.

    5. I would never drink something that's got 90% alcohol in it.

    1.Sobriety does not save money. If i did not get drunk every day, I could have bought myself a car. AND do you have any idea how expensive it is to own a car? Do you? DO YOU REALLY? HEH?
    2. Give the kids alcohol before religion and sports get them.
    3. Not unless you are drunk yourself, then everyone is friends. Exept for sober people. Walking all straight and never falls over, ooh perfect never run into containers.
    4. No it does not. Look at churchill he was an alcoholic, and he won the war. While Hitler did not touch a drop of alcohol and he lost. History is on my side.
    5WIch is why you mix it with....tea or coffe or redbull or burn or water or candy or you know other things.

    U.S. Grant was also an alcoholic, and he was the best strategist for the Union during the USA's Civil War, although, for the most part, the Union's military leadership was sadly pathetic, compared to how much support and supplies they had, versus the Confederacy.

    Some alcohol has been proven to be healthy for your heart (as in the case of having a glass of red wine every day), and drinking in moderation can not only be fun, but can also be an excellent way to pass time, blow excess money, and pick up the wandering bar-slut, among other things.

    And many religions, including Christianity, are pro-alcohol. For example, some "fancy" Christian denominations use real wine in their communion (Last Supper celebration).
