There's so much wrong with thtis I'm not sure where to start.I can say the same about the "social drinkers" here. They have arbitrarily come up with their own definition of what being drunk is and, believe it or not, their definition allows for them to have a few drinks before they consider one to be drunk. A convienant definition to say the least. They cannot define an exact point when one is drunk, but one is *never* made drunk by the first few drinks, those first few drinks *never* contributes to ones drunkeness.
Firstly - the definition provided by the "social drinkers" (many of whom don't drink btw) is far from arbitary. It's the definition used in common English usage and can be found in pretty much any dictionary. Further I'm not sure that anyone here has suggested that someone can't get drunk from one drink let alone imply that the first few drinks don't contribute to one's drunkeness. Of course they do. So???
Of course you can't find it. You've refused to acknowledge that wine is wine. It doesn't take a genius to recognise that Jesus turned water into wine and that the disciples drank wine during Passover. Without careful tuition in the anti-alcohol arguments, one would otherwise be in agreement with the plain reading of scripture, the Jewish history and the history of the Christian church which all agree that wine is wine is wine.As you say "my definition", it will keep one from ever sinning because of drunkeness in any degree, how can that be unbiblical? Their definition allows for various degrees of drunkeness which is sinful. I cannot find a single passage where Christ or an Apostle approved of social drinking, it's nowhere to be found.
As to the question about how your persepctive is unbiblical the obvious answer is the recurring theme of judging others which appears in scripture. If you are calling something a sin which isn't actually a sin and then judging others by it... hmmm.
Uh no. The thought is - if drinking ANY alcohol makes one "drunk" then it necessarily follows that one is drunk when they take medicines with alcohol in them... or mouthwash for that matter or.... whatever. Common sense recognises that that can't be right.So the tho't here is this; if we can find an "acceptable" way to get an ounce or less of alcohol in us, then we can stretch that out to make getting a few drinks in us acceptable?
