Alcohol wasn't invented, it was discovered. It is a naturally occurring substance generated by bacteria in their normal life cycle. Wine and other drinks have been in use for over 5,000 years. In ancient tombs and graves the residues of wine has been found in clay containers. Since the beginning of time humans have found ways to ferment things.

In my personal view, i have read that Muhammad ibn Zakariya al-Razi, a Persian invented rubbing alcohol which is now used in modern hospitals around 1500 years ago. Razi wrote 200 books and articles full of medicine, chemistry, Biology, astronomy, anatomy, alchemy, music, philospohy, neurosurgery, opthalmology and hundreds more. To conclude, he was an EXPERT!
