I think this is a common fallacy. We need water to survive. If there is safer way to survive without drinking water, please let us know. However, I am certain that anyone can survive without alcohol.
- SigmundA 5y agoWe can survive without the being in the sun and the sun gives us cancer, do you want to live without the sun? Not everything we do should be judged on that basis, many things we do for enjoyment that are not required for living have risks associated with them alcohol included. I just want good information on how risky alcohol is to make an informed decision.
- cute_boi 5y agoYes, if there wouldn't be any issue with Vitamin D I would prefer to live without sun. There is reason why I use sunscreen. People take drugs for enjoyment too. There are reasons why many drugs are banned. There are few drugs that are less lethal than alcohol. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/cocaine-ecstacy-drug-classification-alcohol-tobacco-damage-illegal-ban-a8976166.html https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/cocaine-ecst... The problem I find with alcohol is not some occasional drinkers, but the one who ruins everything for the sake of pleasure. In my country, these people cause a large damage. They speak nonsense in streets, harms pedestrian by reckless driving, waste money on women etc.. I have never seen such behavior when someone drank water. Many things looks okay in ideal state or in philosophy, but in real life people have to face the naunces. Hence, I think comparing Alcohol with Water in terms of harmful effect is vacuous.
