As Ben Franklin said: In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria.

In a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. coli) - bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.

However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer (or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol has to go through a filtering process and then fermenting.

Remember: Water = Poop, Wine = Health.

Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of ****.

This is the weirdest thread ever on foot.ie.
But I like it.
Wine it is. :D

[noby]

Magicme, I like the cut of your jib.
But just to let you know it has nowt to do with the filtering process. Long before people were worried about filtered beer, housewives (as they were normally the brewer in the house, seeing as it fell under 'cooking duties') used to brew a normal strength beer, and then a small beer from the second runnings. These beers might have been 2%abv or less, but it was enough to keep all harmful bacteria away, and the small beers were drank instead of water.
Similarly, a lot of plants, heathers etc. were added to beers for flavouring, but once it was discovered that hops acted like a stabilising agent, as well as adding bitterness, they became the norm.

At last some logic behind the Jesus turning water into wine stunt at that wedding in Kano, I'd always suspected he'd done it to show off (maybe impress some bridesmaids) but know we know it was because he cared about people's health.....a real class act

Was that the same day as "loaves and the fishes" or was that another party piece?

Imagine him asking the gathered multitide "Now who doesn't like fish in breadcrumbs?"

[Pike B]

Some serious sacrilage going on here.. Hell for you boys..

[Wangball]

Apparently the crowd weren't all that impressed with his catering skills so he pulled out the big guns and walked on water, a couple of cork folk in the crowd were especially amazed by this as they thought they were the only ones who could do this
