To some, alcohol is good, although medically sometimes it is prescribed, but it is used in a moderate manner, not by drinking 10 or even 12 bottles at a time, which is what is common among those who engage in the use of alcohol. The advice I will give here is to stay away from alcohol unless it is prescribed by a doctor in order to stay healthy.
Alcohol is not bad, short term too much consumption or long term consumption is what that is not good. Doctor do not have to prescribe to someone to drink alcohol. The only when to stop drinking alcohol is when doctor recommends someone not to take it anymore. But it is good to drink alcohol responsibly.
Alcohol is not bad but Christian Religion against the use of alcohol in their various house. According to di 1Timothy 5:23, don't drink alcohol and only water but if you dey tasty you can take small make e no be say you no go fit live without am but don't drink plenty but many people dey abuse this version of the Bible. Some even sleep in kai Kai joint. The pentecostal churches do not allow their members to drink alcohol but some churches give them the permission to drink.
When Jesus Christ came to di world him no drink alcohol drink till him go back to him father and the Christmas day wey be say na di day to celebrate our dear Lord Jesus Christ, some people go use that day dey attention beach parties, drink alcohol and etc. And for those wey don already in the level of addiction e no go easy for them to come back to normalcy. Alcohol is bad and we should avoid it.
