Genesis 1:29 "Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth.".

Lot of poisons included in that list, which ones do you want distributed freely?

Even poisonous plants have their uses....many in medicine...that could be the reason the scriptures say "every". I don't think the Lord's words need to be edited or "lawyered" by the "Oh-Oh Squad".

Nowhere does it say us mere mortals are to pass judgment on another person's 'gifts' the Almighty has given us.

There's a use for every one of them, whether or not we have discovered (yet) what each use is.

The frame of mind of some people is that any herb that brings pleasure should be illegal. A current example is salvia....a totally harmless plant, even in large doses and yet there are those who want it made illegal because it produces a "high" for a few minutes.

There will always be 'control freaks' who try to decide what's best for everyone else and enforce that decision through laws.

I can legally grow castor bean plants, hemlock, and even Amanita muscaria. And many other poisonous things.
