Should we not drink green tea because of the antioxidants that it contains?

Dear Gramps,
In regards to the herbal tea question, is green tea against the Word of Wisdom because there are lots of items made with green tea and is said to be healthy and an antioxidant to clean your system?
Scott, from Phoenix, Arizona

Dear Scott,
You know that green tea is against the Word of Wisdom!! So is black tea, and Orange pekoe tea, and every other tea that is made from the tea plant! So green tea contains antioxidants. So what??? Do does Vitamin A, C and D. In fact they are the antioxidants.
I should also add that green tea contains water. Water is really good for you. So by your reasoning we should drink green tea for the salubrious value of the water that it contains. GIVE ME A BREAK!
