I am puzzled by these Christians who are against alcohol here in the US and a few born-again types in Britain. Did Jesus say you shouldn't drink? Didn't he turn water into wine? (at Kafr Qana) At least the Catholic church like the Jews uses wine in its ceremonies...

protestants and roman catholics are not Christians, so i'm guessing that is why you are confused. if you want to learn the true teachings of Christianity, you have to study Orthodox Christianity. Orthodox Christians offer up bread and wine (mixed with water) every liturgy, to be mysteriously transformed into the body and blood of Christ.

roman catholics have become so depraved in their heresy that often they don't even make the pretense of offering wine at their eucharist. they just give whomever comes forward for communion an unleavened wafer. the roman catholic "church" is so out of control and so far gone that some priests have even been known to substitute coke and pizza for the bread and wine.

there are many scriptures in the new testament that make allowances for drinking wine.

1 Timothy 3:8 and 1 Timothy 5:23 for instance.

there are heretical groups out there which purport to be Christian like mormons (LDS) and seventh-day adventists (SDA) which forbid their followers from drinking alcohol, but these are counterfeit Christians.
