Ok tell me guys, what do you get out of drinking?
I mean, we all know the negative effects of alcohol, but most people still do it, even muslims, and I can't figure out why.
I mean why do you drink something that destroy's your liver, makes you act like a dumbass, kills your braincells, and gives you bad breath.
I mean aren't we suppose to improve and better ourselves, isn't that what life is about?
Yet on a weekly basis people indulge in something that just makes them stupider and stupider with every sip.
Please enlighten me.

please try to think outside of the box for once. yes, studies do show that one or two drinks a day are good for health, but did you ever stop and think why this is so? And just for the record, it's not alcohol that is beneficial, it's wine.
And the reason wine is beneficial is because of the grape extract found in it. So if eat grapes then you will get the same benefit. You will not get the same benefit from drinkin a Corona or two a day I assure you.
This is one of the reasons the French are so healthy, they drink wine with every meal, they smoke thier asses off but don't get lung cancer. And I don't know if you have been to France or not, but you don't see alot of over weight people, even the old dudes are fit.

it is the alcohol and grape extracts my ass.
"The contrasting effects of alcohol are similar to the effects of blood thinners like aspirin, which clearly prevent heart attacks but at the expense of some additional bleeding strokes," said Kenneth J.
"Mukamal, an internist at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and corresponding author for the study. "Acting as a blood thinner makes sense, because heart attacks are caused by blood clots that form in clogged arteries, and blood thinners can hasten bleeding from injured arteries. Based on these findings, we speculated that moderate drinking would also act as a blood thinner.""

ok shadab, let's say for the sake of argument you are correct. you believe that drinking alcohol in small amounts is beneficial.
You being a muslim, should know that there are hundreds of things out there that are 100x more beneficial that any alchololic beverage can do for you.
but then again, let's just say that you are ignorant to these things, and you decide to drink for whatever reason, let's assume that its for the benefical purposes since that was your argument against me.
Now I know for a fact you dont' think alcohol is halaal, so in that respect it is harming your soul.

shit, you guys are pretty dumb for discussing medical issues which are beyond your grasp.. what's with the alcohol/aspirin/grape extract debate..
aspirin thins your blood. is it healthy for you? not unless your blood needs thinning.
alcohol does the same. is it healthy for you? same reasoning as above.
taking aspirin to thin your blood unless prescribed by a licensed physician is probably not a smart thing to do. Aspirin is used a pain killer and that's what it should be used for. Other uses should be prescribed by a licensed doctor. any other use is your responsibility..
like wise, drinking alcohol to achieve the same effects as aspirin is VERY retarded. just because alcohol mimics some qualities of aspirin is not good enough reason to consume it. if you drink it should be for recreational uses.. no doctor recommends alcohol as prescription for heart disease.. any other use is your responsibility..
people should not be consuming alcohol thinking "oh my, i am doing my body good". they are fooling themselves. they should be consuming alcohol thinking "damn, this feels good!".
as for my personal opinion on drinking, I dont drink or do anything that causes harm to my body. besides that stuff is somewhat detrimental to my workout regimen.

shit, you guys are pretty dumb for discussing medical issues which are beyond your grasp.. what's with the alcohol/aspirin/grape extract debate..
aspirin thins your blood. is it healthy for you? not unless your blood needs thinning.
alcohol does the same. is it healthy for you? same reasoning as above.
taking aspirin to thin your blood unless prescribed by a licensed physician is probably not a smart thing to do. Aspirin is used a pain killer and that's what it should be used for. Other uses should be prescribed by a licensed doctor. any other use is your responsibility..
like wise, drinking alcohol to achieve the same effects as aspirin is VERY retarded. just because alcohol mimics some qualities of aspirin is not good enough reason to consume it. if you drink it should be for recreational uses.. no doctor recommends alcohol as prescription for heart disease.. any other use is your responsibility..
people should not be consuming alcohol thinking "oh my, i am doing my body good". they are fooling themselves. they should be consuming alcohol thinking "damn, this feels good!".
as for my personal opinion on drinking, I dont drink or do anything that causes harm to my body. besides that stuff is somewhat detrimental to my workout regimen.
interesting twist on the debate, but beneficial nonetheless.

actually you dont' need a prescription or a doctor's recommendation for aspirin. it is even recommended that certain people take aspirin daily w/o the recommendation of a doctor because it is a relatively mild drug which is very beneficial especially to older and heavier people. as for alcohol, i hardly believe that anyone drinks alcohol for the health benefit, but that doesn't retard the fact that those benefits exist for moderate drinkers.

i know very well you dont need a doctor's prescription. it's an over the counter drug. however, a doctor's recommendation is good because aspirin has side effects. the difference between alcohol and aspirin is that the side effects of alcohol outweigh the benefits.

in the time of the Prophet[sm] people did drink- before it became haraam. I've heard that it was only made haraam because peopel would come to prayers drunk....hence, drinking isn't haraam....only getting drunk is.

there is no winning or losing. drinking is bad for your health, thats obvious, but people still do it. you can say they are stupid, or maybe they realize its bad but still value the benefit of having a good time with their friends above health risks. thats what life is. its a set of decisions to maximize our utility or happiness.
i guess the value of having a good time here also outweighs the pain of hell fire.

repurcussions.
and actually, i was watching a religious speech on television where they actually said it was haraam to get heart surgery!?!
so, essentially it's all open to intrepretation...
in the time of the Prophet[sm] people did drink- before it became haraam. I've heard that it was only made haraam because peopel would come to prayers drunk....hence, drinking isn't haraam....only getting drunk is.
but, i've also read that you may not even tend to an alcoholic who's sick, you may not even share a meal with them...
this is true.

there is no beef with having women educated.
knowledge is power, son. that is stressed time and time again in the Q'uran.
and I'll make a bold statment here, the word "hijab" is not mentioned in the Q'uran, it only says to dress modestly.
you take two different things 1. knowledge is power and 2.there is no beef with having women educated. one is mentioned in the quaran, the second is not.
your main point was to ask why people drink. i explained it to you. now you felt the need to berate me for my explanation. could i go off on a rant about you being an intolerant extremist? ofcourse i could. but i don't. do you know why? because i already told you that you were right about muslims should not drink. why you chose to continue this even after i said that to you from my first posts is beyond me.

Alcohol as a replacement for self-esteem or as a substance to boost you to who you "wish you were" isn't really going to get you there.
And your checks and balances and your conscience serve a purpose. To rid yourself of them isn't exactly something positive.
why is that? everyone has a self esteem issue. dont tell me that you are completely content with yourself and never wish to do something that you are unable to do with a conscience.
alcohol rids yourself of that conscience and if you have nothing to hide, you will be fine and have fun at most.
the reason why several religions have banned the use of alcohol is because they know that men and women alike are animals and society keeps that inside. if you introduce alcohol in the mix, you will get people doing barbaric things.

Of course they do - it's part of growing up, and it's part of life. Tough. Learn to deal with it. If the whole word suffers from self-esteem issues, shall we all live our lives in a state of perpetual drunkenness? It really isn't the solution to the problem. The solution is to work on yourself and accept your flaws but also realise your strengths. Self-esteem wavers on a day to day basis; the beauty those who appear confident is their solid self-acceptance.
You have a conscience for a reason. It's to protect yourself and those around you. By losing your conscience and your inhibitions, the risks you'll be taking won't just be limited to walking up to Hot Girl #12 and going "HEY baby how you doin'?" There are far worse repercussions that people so conveniently forget, until it's too late.

the whole self esteem thing that i am talking about is- when you are with a group of friends... you always want to do something but worried about what your friends may think of you after you did that. alcohol gives you an excuse to do so... you can get away with close to anything by saying that you were under the influence of alcohol.

I don't really care what the other posters do or do not do - if it's hypocrisy on their part, that's their own issue to deal with.
The chemical-laden food you eat really isn't your fault. It's what's available to you, and sometimes people don't have the financial freedom to buy organic all the time. Such is life. The world isn't perfect, but bloody hell we need our food. The least we could do is control what we can as opposed to justifying our bad habits on the basis of things which aren't really under our control.
This isn't an all-or-nothing situation. It doesn't have to be complete-health-nut vs. who-the-fuck-cares. Real life.

for me, i see religion and alcohol/ drugs being the two sides of the same coin.
- they both allow people to get away with anything if they claim that they were under their influence when the act was conducted.
- religions are the opiate of people. alcohol/drugs are also the opiate of people as well. both of these things, give people false hope and false courage.
- people look to both of these things when events arent going for them.
- people often justify that the use of one thing doesnt allow the use of other thing. even though, they maybe perfectably capable of making the person into a greater being.
- they both have a huge financial commitment attached to them if one decides to take one of them up.
the only difference is that alcohol/drugs are viewed as negative things whilst religion is a positive thing. double standards perhaps?
*edit* in fact there are more problems in the world due to religion than alcohol/drugs

for me, i see religion and alcohol/ drugs being the two sides of the same coin.
- they both allow people to get away with anything if they claim that they were under their influence when the act was conducted.
- religions are the opiate of people. alcohol/drugs are also the opiate of people as well. both of these things, give people false hope and false courage.
- people look to both of these things when events arent going for them.

there is nothing false about religion, unless you have the wrong one.

Aurovan, I am dissappointed in you. I thought you would have a different take on this.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with drinking in a controlled way. Living in a city is a lot more damaging to your health than enjoying a few pints with your friends on friday night.
People enjoy it. Let them be. What do people get out of music? Pleasure. But its a complete waste of time practically speaking.

yet people die more on the name of religion every year than alcohol/drugs...
funny thing is that the same religion that bans the use of alcohol... has the most number of killings under its name

But pot > alcohol. :drdodgy:
I have to agree with you. :drdodgy:
Aurovan, I am dissappointed in you. I thought you would have a different take on this.
I agree that alcohol is bad for your health. The cons outweigh the pros. I personally am not a big fan of alcohol either. If I do drink, I stick with beer only. I am sure almost everyone who drinks realizes it's bad for their health, but they would rather substitue a few hours of enjoyment while risking their health - which is fine because it's their body. That's all I am saying. I am sure there have been times when we chose to do something we desire while risking our health. :drdodgy:

Look at it this way, the average American lives upto 77 years of age. This average american probably does not have a healthy life style and they consume alcohol. The OP might be frustrated because he is an young adult, and what do young adults do? DRINK! Slowly as one gets older, the drinking will decrease. My point is if a person wants to have fun by drinking, and instead of living upto 87 years of age (just an example) rather live to 77 - then let it be. :drdodgy:
this has a lot more to do with the standard of living in N. America.

i am not trying to give a cheap shot but look at muslims in general, they are willing to kill anyone who say something against their religion. islam never meant that. islam banned alcohol because it made people into animals, which is something that is being done on the name of religion.
so tell me, do you think that God is pleased that these people kill others on his name?
atleast if they drank alcohol, they would be self destructive... not destroying others.

did you know that the processed sugars in coca cola spikes your insulin so high.. that if you make a habit of it your body becomes insulin resistant and you develop type 2 diabetes..
why do people drink such beverages? I dont get it. do you, Cyber Molvi?

people kill people. Relgion does not kill people.
Richard the Lionheart executed 3000 prisoners in the name of christianity....
Muslims kill people in the name of Islam....
Now do Islam and Christanity preach these things?
No they do not. Religion does not advocate killing unless people are being oppressed.
So to answer your question alcohol and drugs kill more people.

good answer.. that threw me off the boat right then and there. but i will state one thing as i said earlier. people killed more people under the influence of religion than alcohol/drugs (suicides and accidental deaths included). the latter inside the brackets show that the alc/drugs are more self destructive.
so alcohol/drugs arent as bad as you claim that they are.
