I tend to agree.

Now that I know I was a dumbass with respect to my recognition of the problems my drinking was causing; now that I know unintended consequences are going to happen if I drink; I am comfortable with it being labeled a moral choice. I am comfortable with the loose definition of immoral being understanding right from wrong and knowingly choosing wrong.
However...

My observations of posts on this forum lead me to believe I am more comfortable with labels than most of the posters here. Many frequent contributors to the Secular Connections forum rankle at the labels of being an alcoholic, being addicted, in recovery, etc.

It doesn't strike me as unusual that some people would rankle at the notion of being labeled immoral for drinking. Not everyone appreciates a good labeling.
