Other than wine was there any alcohol consumed during the time of Christ? |
Was there Scotch and RuM and Vodka and perhaps beer and wine. Yes. Beer is as old as agriculture, and was produced on an "industrial" scale by the Egyptians (about 3000 BC). Some evidence dates beer brewing back 8000 years ago, about as far back as wine. Most likely wine was first, from wild grapes before grains where cultivated. Beer, since it came about in almost all cultures at the same time as they started making bread. Alcoholism was documented at this time, too. A "cure" was to put a spider in an empty cup and offer it to the afflicted person. Distilled beverages (high-proof liquors) came several centuries later, as a byproduct of early chemistry, and accelerated the scourge of alcoholism. Some societies placed the distillation of liquor in the hands of church authorities in order to maintain some semblance of control. ****, I'm sure there was. I'm sure someone ****** up along the way and accidentally made one of those drinks but they didn't know that at the time. I doubt about the drug thing though, lol. :-)~ Beer has been around since the Egyptians invented the pyramid (how else could they have gotten 1 million Jews to work for nothing for 400 years)? I'm sure there was .Just like it is now people make moonshine and corn whiskey.Now the substance abuse .I don't know. Beer. Not sure about spirits. I do not think distillation was possible then |
