Strong drink in the Bible was called sikera. Wine diluted with water was called oinos. The people of the day drank oinos regularly because the water was contaminated. Jesus turned water into oinos, not sikera and the Bible always condemns strong drink, and yes, JESUSRULES!!!
The story in question can be found in John 2:1-11. It makes no reference to either sikera or oinos, but if you wanted to argue the point, then the case could be made for the former rather than the latter, since it’s clear the Governor made mention that the best wine was kept for last referring to the wine Jesus had transformed from water.
But how long did Jesus take to turn water into wine? 5 minutes or 5 weeks?

I love your signatures(the parts about socalist) but drinking leads to bad things
mmmm…maybe…but jesus turned water to wine, not soda pop.
Alcohol is probably the sole reason man went into agriculture in the first place. Whether civilization is a good thing or not is debatable, but if it weren’t for fermentation, we’d probably all still be hunter-gatherers. So, get sh*t-faced for a reason, celebrate our dominance over the lesser species in grand style! (Yes, this could also be leading to bad things, depends on your perspective…)
Grrr… I disagree about your socialist statement since much of that $3 trillion went to the BANKS to purportedly “save us all from the next Great Depression”, (i.e., look at the all the bank CEO bonuses and Morgan Stanley paying back the loans with stock PROPPED UP BY THE LOANS THEMSELVES), but let’s leave it at that, shall we?
