I would say that for the vast majority of people the REAL reason they like it is because it makes them high. The reality is that nearly ALL "medical" marijuana is simply people wanting to get high. I've known people that made up stuff so that they could get pot. Or at the very least they've convinced themselves that they had some malady that smoking pot makes better. That's primarily because they're psychologically addicted to pot. Their brains have been re-wired to NEED that high.
I think it's funny that the pro-pot advocates tout SMOKED or INGESTED marijuana as a wonder drug of sorts. Why it cures everything under the sun! But funny how nobody recognized that for thousands of years of human history until the pro-pot propagandists kicked their cause into overdrive over the last couple of decades.
After all, God gave cannabis & all seed baring plants to us. Genesis 1:29 tells us this in very clear, simple terms.
It tells us no such thing.
Gen 1:29 And God said, "See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall be for food.
To the pot addled brain "herb" somehow always equates to marijuana. God did not intend for us to eat or to use *every* plant on the face of the earth. Try eating or smoking water hemlock or nightshade and I guarantee you will be convinced of the error of your biblical interpretation.
No, that's your opinion - reality is much wider than people you've known.
“I would say that for the vast majority of people the REAL reason they like it is because it makes them high.”
And you evidence for this is? Do you believe that’s why I use cannabis?
“God did not intend for us to eat or to use *every* plant on the face of the earth. “
You quote the scripture & then declare what Our Heavenly Father did not “intend” when He plainly gives to us “every seed bearing plant”. So you know the mind of God?
The hemlock fallacy was humous though.
Have a great weekend :)
