If so, why?
I personally believe that it is wrong, because when you drink to excess, you're not yourself, and usually end up doing bad things, especially if you are surrounded by people who are doing bad things. At the very least, it's wasteful, because you throw up all the food that God gave you that day once you get too drunk. Plus, in Ephesians or somewhere it says something like "enjoy alcohol a little bit, but don't get drunk" (right?).
My girlfriend, however, is of the opinion, that drinking itself isn't wrong, it's what you do when you're drunk. She says if you get drunk and sleep around, then the sleeping around is wrong, not the drinking. She says that her uncles and stuff get drunk sometimes at home, and the only thing that happens is they just tell a lot of stories and stuff.
Basically, she think's it's totally okay to get drunk, as long as you've got good people looking out for you and you don't do anything horrible like get in fights or sleep around. What do you think?
