Drinking over 1 pint "raises cancer risk"

KhainiWest Wrote:Do you enjoy making yourself look more naive? Okay, alcohol has been a basis on culture for two main reasons:
Too feel good, and a conversation lubricate. People can drink casually too make them less tense, more fluid. People don't drink to simply get wasted, and frankly not a lot of adult's do. My mom used to drink 2 ying lings on long days while makin dinner, that isn't bad. And wine is enouraged to be drank because it's good for your heart, but only like 1 glass.

So basically your counter argument is trying too justify why people drink, which in your perspective is too get wasted. There's a reason why you can moderately drink, but you can't moderately smoke. Smoking is an addiction, drinking is really defined by the settings. At a casual new years, you aren't drinking so you can't speak, but if you're between 17-24 that's a possibilty that is your goal, or don't know your limit.
Saying that people who live healthy are naive? Fine.

That's like saying that people who don't smoke or do drugs are childish. Besides, I'm 1 year away from legal age anyways. And btw, the age limit is there for a reason. People who start drinking as a teen have way higher chance to turn alcoholic in future.

Drinking can be addiction too and it is for many people. Even people that aren't alcoholic often are mentally addicted to drinking.

There's more to alcohol than getting drunk, you can't say that those non-alcoholic beers and wine have the same taste and quality of the real thing. Also, getting slightly drunk once a week is quite fine and goes way below the average stated on the article considering an average over the week.
You are saying that nonalcoholic stuff doesn't have the "same taste or quality"?

 Spoiler

Honestly, how can this society be so two-faced? People attack on smokers, but defend their just as bad, unhealthy habit with ridiculous claims like that and even say that drinking makes someone mature.
