its natural and useful, less harmful than alcohol in many ways, used by millions of alright people and endorsed by Jesus Christ.... how many more excuses are needed to make it legal?

dan7250 > yes, with shamanism, for example... in one way it is quite fascinating, substances which are directly altering our minds and perceptions; no wonder some people (maybe especially the ones believing in the immateriality of the soul?) think of magic or something like that!
even knowing (but how could we be 100% sure?) that it has to do with neurotransmettors, not magic... it hasn't lost its attraction...
maybe we're just more jaded. because according to science, there's no magic, nothing, no real space for dreams and surnatural beliefs, it all looks so boring and unamazing if you believe science, that it's only material, nothing more...
err, sorry i don't think i've made much sense :/

Salma Hayek > maybe time will make it legal... for now the politics are afraid of legalizing cannabis because they'd be afraid of losing credibility and votes among older people...
maybe cannabis isn't really in the habits of older people (the majority who votes) like it is for the newer generations; for these people, it's okay to drink alcohol and to smoke tobacco because it's in their habits... most of them must think cannabis does much more harm than their "habitual" drugs (even if it is wrong), so if politics legalized cannabis they (the politics) would lose popularity among them.
maybe.
(i don't think i've made much sense on this one either.)

and some of them are too old to change their minds (some old people seem to be so narrow-minded sometimes)... even if they were informed that cannabis doesn't do more harm than alcohol or tobacco, probably some wouldn't believe it...

no you did make sense... its all about politics, if it won't gain voters it won't happen... and far too many people are stuck in their old beliefs and habits refusing to change their thinking with time... I personally think it makes sense to make weed legal ...but many people have this negative idea of drugs (justified sometimes!) but they think of all drugs as the same horrible thing when this is obviously not the case

it's not just old people that are stubborn with their thoughts and ideals.... although having believed something for so long it'd be understandably harder to change what you think...

yes... even if they know the danger, these drugs have taken their place in their life, they're a part of their life...
absinthe, for example, has been forbidden, everyone knows it is dangerous but it had such a symbolic importance in the past, and how many people are missing it, or wanting to try it to see how this thing was like (besides it's like you'd live a little bit of your ancestors' past)...

the holy spirit was the smoke of the herb. "Speaking in tongues", the fire thing, the fact that the 'spirit' entered them, all makes sense. Still a pretty shit topic though, how about "Allah smokes crack"?

hehe...
The guy who wrote the original book about this comes from Braintree (just down the road from here...)...he was on the front cover of our local rag; I forget the headline but it was very very funny....I'll see if I can dig it out at work....

I've always thought "Braintree" was such a weird place name. Only "Medicine Hat" beats it in terms of surreal imagary that the name suggests :)
I know a couple of Christians who cane it on weed a lot and cite the same bible verse as proof it's acceptable.
