Jika Allah itu tidak Maha Mengetahui nescaya alkohol ini tidak akan disebut dalam Al-Quran dan tidak pula manusia mampu mengunakan manfaat alkohol tersebut. Namun kebaikan dan keburukan alkohol terletak kepada manusia itu sendiri kerana manusia sudah dikurniakan akal untuk berfikir dan menyingkap ke-agungan Allah swt....Thanks kerana membca daripd awal dan akhir...



Pun begitu ada segelintir masyarakat dunia(yg bodoh lagi tolol dan berbapakan hati binatang) yg boleh kata gempa bumi kat China tuh adalah balasan kepd China akibat amalan komunisme mereka dan ini adalah bagus utk mengimbangi populasi manusia di atas muka bumi ini dimana China kan byk penduduk(populasi = 1,321,851,888 manusia ). OK la that's all, THE POINT yg aku nak kaitkan ngan MINYAK ialah isu-isu seperti di Myanmar dan China umpama tengelam (ISU-ISU GLOBAL WARMING) ,dek tamparan hebat isu harga minyak melambung naik. Kita(manusia) umpama tebuan yg di JOLOK sarangnya, penduduk2 seperti di Eropah,Malaysia,India dan ln2 negara tunjuk perasaan akibat harga minyak naik. Ya mmg isu ini sgt membebankan rakyat terutaman golongan pertengahan dan bawah seperti aku(pelajar), semua harga naik melambung walaupun takda kena mengena. Rasa mcm nak kasi melambung ja gigi penjual yg melampau(ok fine aku emo tetiba).
