...malt does more than Milton can / To justify God’s ways to man. —Housman
Perhaps it's more a normal distribution, at the beginning with a light buzz the ways of God seem to be more OK, at its height in the middle everything God ever did is GREAT, and then the fall and the eventual conclusion that everything is unjust and then vomiting.
That just means they were dissatisfied with life before drinking. Just were holding it inside.
Which is good. All roads start with a single step and to make this step you have to realize where are you now. And expressing this dissatisfaction verbally can be a very goods first step as long as you are not just drinking it away.
Not trying to say that this is as good as therapy or something and alcohol my lead to some bad results but still.
Whether those drinking realise this is another matter.
I suspect there are more people who have tried alcohol and no longer drink than have read Milton. Perhaps we need some data on that!
