specifically the demon goddess behind wine in Babylonian and Mesopatamian religions was SIDURI. Siduri- the barmaid, a manifestation of Ishtar who dwells at the lip of the sea, beyond which is the Land of Life, where Utnapishtim lives. She speaks with Gilgamesh. She wears a veil.

In the Bible Ishtar is the Mother harlot.. she is also known by other names.. mother mary the queen of heaven in the catholic church...( NOT to be confused with the real mother of Jesus named Mary !!)

Ishtar aka the goddess Diana ( which we see her standing as the Statue of Liberty in USA and in many replicas of the statue of "liberty" that are all over the world not just US. ) The Bible records in the book of Acts that the Apostle Paul and others came against all the followers of Diana at Ephesus. Wine drinking and lust and perversion all tie into each other. the ancient Egyptians also offered wine to the gods but warned against taverns.. for they were usually houses of prostitution.. and what is it we see today with bars and taverns and clubs? all a form of harlotry.

Alcoholism is rampant and many think drinking WINE is ok .. esp Christians that dont realize the WINE in the bible was not fermented wine made with yeast ( as Jesus warned about the yeast of the Pharisees.. in more ways than ONE!) the New Wine in the bible is Grape Juice.. pressing of grapes.. not fermented. Grape juice is known for its healing properties and antioxidants.
