The only fact you have highlighted sir is that 'some' people can't handle their alcohol.
chaney3 has, of course, in the past, tried to blame Jesus for it. There was an infamous thread which he started about 18 months ago.

Drunk & bad decisions go hand in hand.
Soberness is no guarantee of good decisions.

Both of you, FMF and Ghost, are trying to act mightier than thou, and you're minimizing a common fact: being drunk means you are highly likely to act differently than when sober.

Why are you disputing this common knowledge?

I am not dismissing any immoral behaviour. I am simply saying that getting drunk is neither immoral nor is it an excuse for immoral behaviour.

People should simply take full responsibility for their behaviour, regardless of whether they are drunk or sober. If someone cannot handle their alcohol in this regard, they ought to refrain from consuming it.

There is nothing inherantly immoral about "acting differently".

The point you're missing is that WHEN you get to the stage of being drunk, your decision making process is compromised. Not sure why you cannot comprehend this.

Not at all. I simply shared with you my own relationship with alcohol.

And I agree, alcohol can make one act differently. For me, I go very quiet before falling asleep. Others may become angry, disinhibited, while others still merry and sociable.

I think your generalizations here have a repressed significance.

People should take full personal responsibility for their decision making processes.

If this is true for you, and you engage in immoral behaviour as a result, then don't drink.
