Yes... several, and my social circle is pretty small.
And? What of it?
You don't drink? Fine. You have reasons for not drinking? Fine. That's for you. You cannot make an airtight case from Scripture for everyone to do as you do, so stop trying. You won't convince those of us who read all of Scripture for ourselves.

Yep. And it's bunk. My. favorite is where the author confuses Petimezi with new wine. If you have ever had petimezi you too will find this hysterical on its face. It betrays a complete and utter lack of understanding of the source material at best or a deliberate twisting at worst. Both indictments suggest the author should be ignored.

Again. Context young man...
THEIR wine is the poison of dragons.
Whose wine?
Those who fit this description:
They are a nation without sense,
there is no discernment in them.
29 If only they were wise and would understand this
and discern what their end will be!
30 How could one man chase a thousand,
or two put ten thousand to flight,
unless their Rock had sold them,
unless the Lord had given them up?
31 For their rock is not like our Rock,
as even our enemies concede.
32 Their vine comes from the vine of Sodom
and from the fields of Gomorrah.
Their grapes are filled with poison,
and their clusters with bitterness.
About this nation the scriptures say: "their wine is the poison of dragons."
Question: do you think their wine was actually dragon poison or asp venom?

oh we're just posting random scripture now?
ooh! i have one that no one has mentioned
ooh! i have one that no one has mentioned
Wisdom has built her house,
She has hewn out her seven pillars;
She has slaughtered her meat,
She has mixed her wine,
She has also furnished her table.
She has sent out her maidens,
She cries out from the highest places of the city,
“Whoever is simple, let him turn in here!”
As for him who lacks understanding, she says to him,
“Come, eat of my bread
And drink of the wine I have mixed.
Forsake foolishness and live,
And go in the way of understanding.
(Proverbs 9:1-6)
