I believe that we should enjoy life to the fullest, as long as we do no harm and try to help make life the best it can for everyone. It's the only one we've got.

Sure to an extent. I mean if someone wants to drink themselves silly every weekend fine, as long as the don't put people in danger like driving, or go on a rampage bashing people's car windows in with a crowbar. I'm not into alcohol or drugs, but yes, I believe it's important to live life, do things you enjoy, because tomorrow it may all be over, and guess what, that's it, no more fun.

To a reasonable degree you should eat, drink and be merry as long as you're not prioritizing the present you's happiness too much over future you's happiness. If you consider the sum total of your happiness during your lifetime then suddenly planning, prudence and caution become important.

I don't think I'm going to die tomorrow. I don't drink alcohol. I eat daily. I can be merry when the occasion calls for it.

It's the company Christmas dinner tomorrow, so I will certainly be eating and drinking, provided that I don't die before lunch time.

I rarely drink and never excessively- and by rarely, I couldn't tell you the last time I had a drink. We eat to live, not live to eat. As far as merry, that's according to your inclination.
Everything in moderation, as Aristotle said.

No. That's a very religious response...and full of vice.
Religion is just hedonism wrapped with a God-Ribbon.

No. As a matter of principle I do my best to avoid all unsubstantiated beliefs. Factual knowledge is much more my style.

no--actually I believe that statistically I'll probably hit 80--so I'll save my money--and take it easy on my body--so that I can have a comfortable healthy retirement.

sure, why not. Only a fool would sacrifice this actual life for an imaginary one thereafter.
