Your supposition that harm is the basis of criminal law is patently absurd. Alcohol causes many times the harm of herb and yet it is legal. Comparing violent acts of one against another to the possession of a gift from God is not in any sense logical.

More people die from ingesting peanuts than rat poison, does that mean rat poison should be allowed in food or that peanuts should be banned? Do I really have to explain that one to you? OK, statistics count. 100% of people that eat rat poison get sick, about 3% have an alergy to nuts and about .4% have a bad reaction. A reasonable person could draw a usable conclusion from that.
