This is as condescending as they come. Why do believers like TeeJay think that only they know about the Bible? You think just because I don't believe in your god or coz Coach believes in another god that we don't know about the Bible. Come on man, wake up and smell the coffee.
Back to the point.
About whether Christ used to drink, here's what the KJV writes in John Chapter 2:
2:1 And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there:
2:2 And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.
2:3 And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.
Jesus and his disciples wanted wine (which means that Jesus used to drink wine) but there was none. If you argue that he never used to drink wine, then clearly it's a contradiction, since Jesus would not have made the wine, he'd have rebuked them for wanting wine. There is no way an all-good god would provide people with an evil thing.
And NO, the wine wasn't a symbol. Not everything Christ did was symbolic, some was just basic black and white stuff. There was no wine, he and his disciples wanted wine, so he made wine. Period.
Finally, if wine is all bad or whatever, why is it drunk in his church at his altar as a Christian symbol of his blood?
About the marriage - you insist that Christ wasn't married. You rant and rave about wine, the devil, the catholic chruch, Jesuits, symbolism and all that, but you don't include an iota of evidence that can show Christ wasn't married. You've just muddied the waters with a lot of random attacks on many topics. So again I'll ask, if you say Christ wasn't married, prove it. Show me the biblical quotations which say he wasn't married or any other evidence. And "Christ's bride is the church so he couldn't have been married" or any other such Christian dogma isn't evidence.
BTW I've never heard of Christ being gay. God said that gays should be stoned to death outside the city gates, and he burned Sodom and Gomorrah down for the excessive "gayness" of their inhabitants. Going on this, there's no way Christ (who is god) could have been gay.
