Alcohol and tobacco have been with us all along. Alcohol, in particular, is connected with Christianity (in small amounts). Cannabis, OTOH, is relatively new, which is why it would be easier to discourage it.

Any society can tolerate one or two accepted intoxicants. Going past that number is not helpful to society

Yeah, we can tolerate it, as long as it isn't our relatives dying from cancer or getting killed by drunk drivers.
