Sounds like Rastafarianism, where it is the “holy herb”.

Do they play a pipe organ there, or are they more like Holy Rollers?

pharmakia

The term magic arts comes from the original word,
pharmakia, from which we also get the word pharmacy. It
also refers to the use of drugs, or sorcery. Those involved
in sorcery get high on drugs in order to make it easier to
contact demons. Pathetically today, millions of young
people are getting in bondage to Satan through the use of
drugs without even knowing it.

The second decline of an empire. Look at Europe, too.

It’s just paganism...worshipping the creation, instead of the Creator.

That's not fair. You're using facts and logic to discredit my facetious argument.
