Alcohol is becoming far worse now, with our youth, than 30-40 yrs ago, for many of us !
Somehow, we've all got to try and convince our Governments, of the desperate need, to legislate mandatory health warning labels on all liquor containers.
Right now, there are 5 most common health afflictions, they are & in no particular order:
-Grand Mal Seizures
-Rapidly Progressive Blindness
-Rapidly Progressive Deafness
-Rapidly Corroded Livers
-Heart Attacks
Each with no forewarning signs, nor any cures, therefore are permenant !

If there was at least a warning of what moderate drinking of hard liquor could result in, perhaps, many of our kids wouldn't even touch it from the beginning !

If we don't do something quickly, whats going to happen when all of us, old sods, are dropped off at Nursing Homes, to be spoon fed ? Who's going to take over/assume all our many Professional Jobs ???

May God have mercy on us all !

Sheila seems to have picked five random 'afflictions' and ascribed them all to alcohol use. Neither Grand mal seizures nor heart attacks are permanent, and you have to be driinking anti-freeze to go either deaf or blind. The liver is a very hardy organ and you have to do some very serious damage (and drinking) to do permanent harm.
God preserve us instead from the idiotic beliefs (and seeming inability to question anything they read or hear) of the righteous and from governments that feel entitled to interfere with our lives and our freedom to choose paths that may harm us, but nobody else.
I drink therefore I am.

There is currently a degradation of human beings. It does not matter whether someone is a believer in God on not. Everyone is turning a blind eye to the fact that since a child is born, he or she is immediately being degraded. This is a social fact on which both believers in God and non-believers would agree. I wonder what will happen to the next generations, what will happen to states, families? Every intelligent person realizes that the fundemental blocks of a strong state is based on physically and mentally healthy families. If healthy families disintergrate what will happen to the state? If members of society are unstable physically and mentally then how will a state defend itself if it has no one to recruit to its armed forces? If members of society turn into dangerous individuals, how will the police handle such a great number of out-laws? Where will the state find normal people to recruit to the police forces for domestic security???????
