Just *why* is marijuana use wrong?

[Roman_Korvinus]

first off Marijuana is not a gateway drug. It has been proven in court as being a false belief. Second there are over 25,000 different uses for hemp that threaten the capitolist world. From textiles to oil. A NASA researcher has proven that it can be made into a fuel and can replace over 50% of our oil consumption.

I find nothing wrong with it what so ever. It wouldn’t have lasted for over 5000 years if there was something wrong with it. Even Washington, Franklin and Jefferson used hemp and marijuana. One acre of Hemp can replace over 4 acres of hard wood. You do the math. We even used to pay our taxes with and if you owned land during the war you were required to grow it.

Marijuana is illegal because politicians can make more money raping the land and destroying the soil and mountains. Simple as that.

If it wasn’t for marijuana the whole reality of receptors in the brain would have never been found. This drug has single handedly provided more information about dreams and the human condition than any other.

I do not think anyone has any ojections to the no drug uses of hemp. Though there are a few statement you make here that source for this info of required to grow and paying taxes with.

and the abuse of useing it as a intoxicant drug.

Agian please provide source.

While I appreciate your enthusiasm and don’t disagree with your entire post, you might as well have prefaced it with “I smoke weed… I know it’s considered wrong but here’s my justification for it.”

If you see alcohol usage as sinful, then, while I disagree (but that’s an issue for a different topic), there is nothing more I can say on that.

However, if you’re OK with alcohol usage but are against the legalization of marijuana, then that’s nothing short of hypocritical.

Agreed.

This link is for a video on KET called Botony of Desire. The gentelman who made this documentary did his study on 4 plants/veg. Tulips, apples, marijuana and potatoes. In this documentary you will find the information on the recptors in the brain dealing with the nesscesity of forgetting as well as our conscious evolution.

As far as the intoxicating drug part is concerned. No one has ever died from marijuana. In the last ten years there has been over 100 drugs that are FDA approved that have resulted in death or incurrable ailments. Not to mention the use of organichlorides and other Dioxins. All chemicals are rated on a scale based on dioxin. 2378 TCDD being the most deadly. The government has stated that there is safe level of this toxin. Which begs me to ask how is it that most toxic chemical on the planet has a safe level?

That’s it? I am against drunkenness and against marijuana. I will vote against legalizing it for general use.

Bad enough drunks are on the road. The last thing this country needs is potheads driving around (and yes, I know they’re out there).

Peace,

Is it okay with the church to smoke marijuana in places where it’s legal?

 

[Roman_Korvinus]

The only reason it’s illegal is becasue of propagand create by corporations like DuPont and the smear campains from the 20’s and 30’s that have been found to be false. There is no other reason than just plain ole snotty hippocrites trying to play king. No one has ever died from marijuana. Unlike alcohol and the many legal perscription drugs.

I suppose since he’s been banned it’s irrelevant but this is the stupidest thing I’ve ever read. I don’t think it’s any more dangerous than alcohol but to say nobody’s ever died from it is just evidence that it makes you stupid.

Except, you know, it’s kind of true. It’s impossible to OD on marijuana. You’d have to smoke an imposible amount at a ridiculous speed in order to die from marijuana.

Maybe one should check facts before calling other people stupid.

The same could be said of tobbacco, Yet we are told that thousands die from tobbacco every day.

It would make for an interesting study to see if people die from marijuana related ilnesses compared to tobbacco. It would be rather difficult to do though cause most people who use marijuanna smoke tobbacco also.

Is that true? I’m not challenging you, I genuinely don’t know. I know you can make yourself very sick from oversmoking tobacco.

In any case, tobacco is legal, so this point is relatively moot.

My point is that you can not OD on Tobacco. Yet it is said to kill thousands aday. I also know that you can make yourself very sick from oversmoking marijuana, and on top of that your high.

I’ve never seen anybody smoke themselves sick, straight yeah but not sick.IOW words smoked so much that one doesn’t feel high anymore.

And I suppose ODing is the only way that a foreign substance can kill us?

When I drunk driver wraps his car around a tree and rockets through the windshield and dies on impact was it the alcohol that killed him? No. But it is considered to be the cause. I will admit that you hear more often of a drunk driver dying or killing someone than you do someone that’s high but it does happen.

Maybe one should think outside the box before questioning someone else’s knowledge of the facts. Please re-read the post I was referring to… it doesn’t say “nobody’s ever died from an OD of marijuana” it says "no one has ever died from it.? So while I appreciate your (name removed by moderator)ut I’m quite confident in what I said before, it was a stupid statement. As is your contesting it without having thoroughly read what was said.

Yes, they’re called blunts (weed rolled with tobacco leaves instead of rolling paper) and they’re TERRIBLE! Blech! Choke! Spew! Stuff could gag a maggot!

Intentionally altering your faculties beyond a rational control is committing a sin against the human body that God has given you. In the context of recreation, the purpose of marijuana is to do just that. There is no moderation in this particular scenario.

Drinking wine, however, can be done in moderation. It is possible to enjoy wine without compromising your faculties beyond a rational control. Therefore, wine (as an example) can be enjoyed without committing sin.

I seriously doubt the medicinal marijuana argument, but will allow for it for the sake of this discussion. In short, using substances for medicinal purposes is certainly okay, provided that they are properly supervised and governed. My general impression, however, is that medicinal marijuana is a ruse for those who seek recreational pleasure from it.
