Matt Alderman provides an interesting theological argument from tradition that I’d never thought of. I don’t think it’s foolproof, but I do think there’s something to it:
“Drink wine, and you will sleep well. Sleep, and you will not sin. Avoid sin, and you will be saved. Ergo, drink wine and be saved.”
— Medieval German proverb
