I believe if you take a look, real wine was used by the apostles for sacrament until 1906. The temperance movement was in full force by non Mormon Christians in the country by then, and the LDS Church actually complied not as a leader in prohibition, but was reactionary to the other denominations calling them out.
It was a prophet in the 1900s or so that led the hard stance about coffee, tea and tobacco and Heber j. Grant made it a temple requirement in 1921. Alcohol was illegal at the time. And the Church has never looked back.
Yep.

WHAT!
There's an inconsistency in church doctrine and history?!?!?!
There are 2 Gods. One who created us. The other you created. The God you made up is just like you-thrives on flattery-makes you live in fear.
Believe in the God who created us. And the God you created should be abolished.
