This presumes that smoking pot is an immoral action. I guess you also presuppose that there is a scale on which God measures these things. So to God, a hit of acid is worse than a line of coke, a line of coke is worse than a tab of X, a tab of X is worse than a joint and a joint is worse than a glass of wine. Does that about sum up your moral argument? Do you understand how utterly bankrupt such an argument is?

. . . or is the coke worse than the acid? Maybe the X is worse than the coke? I don't know. Biblical references anyone?

"Do you understand how utterly bankrupt such an argument is?"
One of the most profound epiphanies of my life was when I read a book on Ted Bundy the serial killer and I realized that he had made a rational argument to justify his murdering. There is the whole Marxist system that justifies taking from those who work to give to those who are lazy. I'm sure that the Marxists use profound arguments too.(In the last century 100 million were killed by reasoned arguments to protect the state.)
What do I think God thinks about taking acid over marijuana? Both are sins. The nature of Man since Adam has been to rebel and the rationalizing of sin.
