I have met many people and seen many cultures of india, there are many sub-castes of brahmins who are hardcore Non-vegetarians, like Maithli brahmans, nepali brahmans, kashmiri brahmans, himachali brahmans, Gaud saraswat brahmans, bengali brahmans etc. Most of these sub-castes are traditional meat eaters, not just of today. Sachin tendulkar, lata mangeshkar, sunil gavaskar all fit in gaud saraswat category and they all are non-vegy.On the same maadwaris, agarwals, are 100% vegetarians. They come in vaishya category. Also there are many sub-castes of brahmins who are pure vegetarians.
There is nothing called demi-god in hinduism, please stop abusing our devtas by taking terms from iskcon. Second devtas, including VISNU himself drank soma, which was not alcohol, but energy drink, which was required to give them strength in fights against asuras (demons).
Also Alcohol is definitely bad, if you see it on average, alcohol can bring no good, but it can bring many bads,alcohol can lead to wife-beating, making one child abuser, in developing cancer, My mom and dad are doctor, they say 50% of their patients acquire
problems from alcohol only. so alcohol is detrimental to society.
I am not saying, pre-martial sex with consent is crime, but it is definitely not moral, nor ethical, from Hindu dharms perspective. I wouldn't advice it to anyone.
