In vino veritas is a well-known Latin phrase. It means "in wine [there is the] truth". It is also known as a Greek phrase "Ἐν οἴνῳ ἀλήθεια", which has the same meaning. The author of the Latin phrase is Pliny the Elder,[1] the Greek phrase is attributed to the Greek poet Alcaeus.

Hey:

There is over 2000 years of history here on the subject.

Are you questioning the ones who proved it long ago???

By the way questioning Authority is great. !!!!

I

I speak from some small authority on alcohol consumption:

Yep:

There are some things that come out as "Truth" with the capitol "T".

Non drinkers are to be pitied and consoled on never reaching the threshold of this well known fact.

I Dun Know --- "Truth" is "Truth", don't matter how much you paint it over. : -- )

Alcohol, religion and guns..are not inherently evil...
It's what some people DO with them that causes, or is in itself, evil.

Its obviously there. So its not nothingness.

If you find evil in it. You brought it with you.

But it does have a tendency, to bring out the truth.

And that will get you into trouble.
