It's not an extreme and certainly not wild, science, especially in the last 5 years has proven that any alcohol, even one drink, is harmful to your heart, brain, liver and kidneys.
The jury is still out on number 2, but I think most would agree "perfect" isn't likely.
As far as number 3, I've seen studies on the longevity of regular weed smokers have a lifespan 2-3 years less than average, so early grave is probably a bit strong. However, the alarming part of the studies was that most of those studied had medium to severe cognitive impairment the last 8-12 years of their life.
