I Can't Get Alcohol

Maybe 90% of you understood the title to imply that ‘I wanted to get alcohol but couldn’t’. Well, what I really meant was that I can’t get why people drink alcohol. I’ve always wondered what’s the good side to booze? Okay, these are the facts that I’m aware of: relief from stress, try to soothe problems, forget about something troubling; I still can’t get it.
I know that for a fact, alcohol is really bad for the liver, kidney, and other internal organs. Plus I really think it tastes bad. What’s really interesting about getting drunk, acting stupidly, and most importantly showing the whole world to how much of a jerk you are? Still, I’m trying hard….Still can’t get it.
One positive form of alcohol, I believe, might be wine, which gives a special taste to food, as some might think. While Islamic law embargoes alcohol 'haram', the question is one that relates to regulation since consuming alcohol is an issue that cannot be directly regulated by a superior entity, it is therefore best to banned. And Islamic Shari’a engenders the deficit in human nature (that they can't be controlled and will never act uniformly because people are the way they are!) and therefore alcohol consumption has been dealt with accordingly, by simply banning it. Why can’t people wait until they reach heaven (inshalla) and drink heavenly wine as much as they can? Regardless of one’s religious belief, alcohol is the reason behind many mental, social, and health problems why don’t you eliminate it and even avoid falling into it to begin with? I still can’t get it!
I really believe that banning (haram) alcohol is due to God’s wisdom, since people well never be uniform. Therefore, if people do not put that wisdom into consideration, at least keep in mind the reason for the banishing of alcohol which is to preserve human being not only from doing ‘haram’ but also to bestow human nature from repulsive habits. I still can’t get the idea! Grazie!
