I think it's nonsense.
Isn't it a complete and utter double standard to say "You can't drink here because it's sinful, but in heaven (a place entirely free of sin) you can drink as much as you want"?
It's like saying "you can't rape anyone on earth because it's sinful, but in heaven you can rape as much as you want!"
It's ridiculous, convoluted, and makes no sense whatsoever, and that's bracketing out all the additional nonsense about alcohol somehow being inherently 'bad' (in a spiritual/sinful way).

Allah couldn't be bothered to tell Muhammed that the earth wasn't flat or the centre of the universe either.

Most of the teachings of Islam are the same. On earth we have limited life and we must do lawful acts, but once we go to heaven we have the opportunity to do what ever we desire, we can have unlimited amount of wives or servants.... there is wine we can drink, only allowed in Heaven. Why do you think Suicide Bombers love to enter Heaven early, because they are awaiting for God's rewards.

The Quran spoke against drunkiness especially in times of praying and animosity it can cause between humans. Moderation is the key here. Moderate use of alcohol is OK from a Quranic perspectives.
OK, that's cool. Now - what about moderate use of bacon?
