Can you definitively tell me that any, say, heart effects are more than offset by additional adipose tissue and the potential for slight autoimmune suppression?
Have you ever taken an econ class? Can you tell me the personal utility one might gain from alcohol consumption doesn't outweigh the factors you're considering negative?
Quantifying 'good' vs. 'bad' here is pretty much retarded.
Also, why so much hate for these things? Do you drive a car, or eat red meat? Everything is bad for you, dude - pick your battles, but realize they're YOUR battles.
Dani actually addressed this point . . . citation != credibility automatically.

Maybe if you state what you were trying to say in simpler terms then I can give you a better response. I don't have "hate" for anything I just don't support self destructive behavior and just want to see where other's stand on the issue. And sure I do those things, but eating red meat and driving a car has a significant purpose and won't cause me to make a complete ass out of myself by doing too much.
