Question-
What DOES justify alcoholism?
Answer:
hmmm, lets see try walking in my shoes, you will probally be an alkie in no time at all. Not saying I am, but I have seen many people who have same/simular problems turn to drinking. I can't tell a man to not become an alcoholic, it is his choice. It is how he handles the world. It may not be healthy in any way, but it is one way of dealing/not dealing with life.
I have heard that "insanity is a sane reaction to an insane world therefore we must question what sanity is..." Alcoholism is simply another reaction to the world. It is neither right nor wrong. If you don't agree with it, that is cool, but don't think anything less of the person who chooses that route. In the end they will have one of two things happen to them, they either straighten up and eventually die, or simply die. The outcome is the same. In fact all the rest of us have the same outcome, difference is we don't choose to view the world through the bottom of a beer bottle. The only problem I have is when the alcoholic's behavior has an affect upon somene else. Meaning that they drink and drive, or are in a position where someone else's life is in thier hands. Beyond that, I'll raise a glass to them getting sloshed as they please.
