Well for example, wine has nutritional content and the body can use it. The body doesn't need pot and to my knowledge there is no nutritional content.
Also, in OT times and even NT times, the water in some areas was not good, so people could drink wine and obtain fluids this way.
If you are trying to compare alcohol to pot as if they are even closely related in any way, you are a nutter.

I'm not. Alcohol is a dangerous drug...Marijuana is not.

Marijuana has nutritional content and the body can use it. In fact, marijuana has been used as food for over five thousand years. Marijuana will support life. Alcohol will not.
Everything you think you know about marijuana is wrong. Volumes of research have been published since medical marijuana was legalized in California.
The latest...Alzheimers disease. Medical marijuana supporters have been claiming since 1996 that marijuana helps stop alzheimers disease.
That claim has now been proven by scientists.
Investigators at The Scripps Research Institute in California reported that THC inhibits the enzyme responsible for the aggregation of amyloid plaque the primary marker for Alzheimer's disease in a manner "considerably superior" to approved Alzheimer's drugs such as donepezil and tacrine. "Our results provide a mechanism whereby the THC molecule can directly impact Alzheimer's disease pathology," researchers concluded. "THC and its analogues may provide an improved therapeutic option for Alzheimer's disease by... simultaneously treating both the symptoms and the progression of the disease".
Marijuana has also been proven to be more effective than Ritalin to treat kids with ADD...with none of the dangerous side effects of Ritalin.
