6. Because it's there.
And it's good.

And I'm sure the wine Jesus drank DID have alcohol. How do I know that? Because ... when he changed the water to wine, it was extra good stuff. The ruler of the feast, after tasting it, thought the bridegroom had goofed and put the wrong wine out. Usually, the best wine is served first and the not-so-good stuff is served after people have been drinking for a while, but this good stuff was put out at the end. Makes sense to me that it had alcohol in it.

Besides that, the lack of refrigeration in those days required it to be fermented in order to be preserved.

That's my argument and I'm sticking to it ... and drinking my wine. And my wine is not evil. :9

:hi:
