When Jesus turned water into wine, what's that proving? That he can do magic tricks? Is that all? I don't think he was helping anyone by turning them into alcoholics.
What's the moral story we are to take from it?

That was actually the last thing hanging me to the faith. It would be preferable to turn water into beer, but I wouldn't complain much Big Grin
As it says in Proverbs 20:1 (MSG) = "Wine makes you mean, beer makes you quarrelsome— a staggering drunk is not much fun."

Jesus loved wine.  Matthew 9:15 (MSG) = "Jesus told them, “When you’re celebrating a wedding, you don’t skimp on the cake and wine. You feast. Later you may need to pull in your belt, but not now. No one throws cold water on a friendly bonfire. This is Kingdom Come!”"

You get a better buss when wine is mixed with water.
2 Maccabees 15:39 (CEB) = "Just as it is harmful to drink wine or water alone while wine mixed with water is delightful and produces joy, so also may the writing of this story delight the ears of those who encounter this work. The end."
