If that was the only reason for drinking wine, then why wouldn't Jesus have
just purified the water?  

Arguments like that (and I realize that you are just passing on someone elses
for interests sake) really annoy me.  Drinking wine is a quite persistant 
theme in the old and new testments, and what it does say is not to be drunken
or let your mind be clouded if you have important things to do.
