Matthew 5:10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

This goes back to my original point about smoking pot as a shortcut to God, idolatry. Apparently you believe that smoking pot makes you rightousness...at least you are implying that. In reality, righteousness only comes from God and that only through the indwelling of God's holy spirit. Depending on a drug for righteousness is at best, addiction, and at worst, idolatry.

You obviously do not have any idea as to what I believe.
But, you would be glad to force your own belief upon me.
Religious liberty is the foundation of this great nation.
You subscribe to the heresy of evil having substance, yet
deny the evil in actions taken by your side which are
adverse to the expressed will of God in the word. Nobody
is any less a Christian for partaking of an herb, however
persecuting a Christian for partaking of an herb will
assuredly not bring anyone any closer to the Holy Spirit.
However, the persecuted Christian can only get closer to the
Holy Spirit.
