[Music] some welcome to practical spirituality here in Asia tour in the old city of jerusalem overlooking the western wall they the drug of choice of the Jewish people is wine wine is the drug of choice and it's it's you know it's the fruit of the vine and and so we should look into this this drug of choice called wine a little bit wines wine it's covenant 'el first of all it's it's you know it's something that you connect to people with people generally don't drink wine and punch each other's lights out something you cannot say about Jack Daniels there's when you see a fight at the ballgame you know like good fist fight which I used to love to watch cuz I only really went to ball games to watch people and and obviously my interest was people not getting along for the most part because I've made it my life's work to help people get along and and I think I've gotten very far with that but but watching people go all out you know in a stadium fistfight is you know like that's it's just as a kid that was too good to be true and I used to bring my binoculars just to really get a good vantage point to watch that now I didn't want anyone knocking their lights not each other lights out but my study was people not getting along which meant like watching fathers and sons not connect or husbands and wives were distracting themselves at the sporting event rather than connecting to one another and I would watch this even as a little kid I used to watch watching much
