You want license to get high....
I understand that completely.

Yeah I get soooo high every day. I am flying like a bird in the sky. Most of the
time I don't even know my name anymore, but it dont matter. I'm a bird after all.


But do not discount the consequences of your choice as I have laid them out.

People in upper management are very much aware of how much their staff behaves like middle school children in grown up form. You believe that's coincidence? Go right ahead.

You believe Iranian and Russian propaganda boys about the mRNA vaccines? OK....whatever.

However....Marijuana, even medical Marijuana, is 16X more carcinogenic than tobacco. That's a 1,600% increase in cancers over non cannabis users who do engage in tobacco use.

I'd like to see some PROOF of that!

Ummmmm.....the mRNA Vax doesn't come close to those kinds of numbers by the hospital janitor writing these studies which get published.

And I hate to break it to you....
But you are already exhibiting all the signs of classic chemical dependency. The taking of yourself too seriously is the first sign. The anger levels and anger incidences rising slowly over the years and never lowering....so slow you don't notice. But others do. Friends and acquaintances slowly getting shorter and shorter visits with you....becoming less available until the relationship either ends with fiery outrage from you or they simply evaporate and where new relationships are fewer and fewer than those who Naturally evaporate due to changing schedules or moving.

What a bunch of nonsense. LOL


Just saying.....
 
Brother, do you know how expensive that stuff is? It's thru the roof! I can't afford that on SS. I do dose it too. I never have smoked it all day every day, lol. Even when I smoked it recreationally.

You mean vaporizers are too expensive? I don't know the prices where you live and wether there are good ones which aren't that
expensive. You definitely need a good quality vaporizer. A cheap one from cheap materials could also be unhealthy.

Edibles take longer to kick in and the effect also lasts longer, as far as I know. I have no experience with edibles.

I heard that overdosing on edibles in worse cause it takes longer to leave the system!
 
If we learn His healing as He taught the 12 we probably don't need it?
He said He will keep in perpetual health those who are stayed on Him.

Jesus said if a man is sick, let him see a doctor. Don't be so ignorant of medical care. Sometimes this is the way to get saved.

I agree. I mean according to the logic of some people here nobody needed medicine for anything.

No blood pressure meds, no diabetes meds, no nothing. Just ask God to heal you. It's so simple. :D

Don't forget: No glasses either.

Your lack of emotional moderation is noted....

And a classic symptom of chemical dependency.

You don't have to be completely dysfunctional to have a chemical dependency....might just be weekend use or what most people claim is recreational use. Or just a little at the end of a "long, hard day" as a "help"....

That's how it starts....and progresses over time. But then emotional regulation becomes more and more dependant over the years upon the chemical they are dependant upon. Until they become completely inhospitable unless on the chemical....and then just inhospitable completely. Happens like eyesight going bad over the decades as we age....happens so slowly you can't notice.

Oh my God, are you for real?

I don't know wether to laugh or cry.

Wait! This is another symptoms of cannabis dependence, right?

Dang it!

I'm addicted to so many things. Toilet paper, coffee, water, food. I just need it every single day!

Btw, still waiting for you to show me PROOF that cannabis is 1600% more carcinogenic than tobacco!

What we have today is a monopoly bought by an oil tycoon. Medicine today I call medi-$in.

Why?

For the love of money is the root of all evil.

The entire industry is based, not upon healing and the compassion of Christ. It is based upon the love of the root of all evil.

I'm not saying everyone is sinning by taking chemical drugs. I am saying that the entire industry is evil.

1st Pharmaceutical Companies were birthed from an oil tycoon who sold, what HE CALLED Snake Oil. He was a salesman of crude oil mixed with alcohol. He got a contract with the Northern AND Southern Armies during the civil war. Snake Oil and surgeries were the only treatments allowed.

However, up to 1913 there were many health practices in common use. Guess who was given the monopoly by the federal government?
Yes, the oil industry tycoon.
He had petroleum derived chemical medicines that continue until today.

The reason why the majority of the world is so biased is because there have been many generations of people duped into believing that the only things that bring healing are the snake oil chemicals and surgeries.

Where is the Healer in all of that?

Ya know, they tried to kill Lazarus again after Jesus raised him from the dead. So he went into hiding.

Because no matter what proof is offered it is unimportant and not relevant to most people. They want what they want and nothing will change their mind....even if everything blatantly is precisely what the contrarians say is proving their point. (Like someone rising from the dead)

(Old cancer study started under Carter by NIH and completed/published under Reagan....check pubMed)


Let's look at Matthew 22.
Jesus was describing what the Gentile inclusion into Judaism (now termed Judeo-Christianity) was going to look like. There was someone at the wedding party who did not bother to put on a robe all the party attendees were supposed to wear. Because the invitation was so broad based and not exclusive the person thought that the Bridegroom needed them more than the attendee needed to be there.

What is more important to you?
Really?
Willing to give it up for God even if you don't like the consequences of not doing it?
Is the cure for chemical dependency worse than the disease in your estimation.
Can you go weeks, months, or years without? Or is that scary?

Functional Chemical Dependants are the LARGEST demographic. Especially today.

But when you have all the classic signs and symptoms and still deny it....that's the sign if a real problem in your future.
 
Did the weed dealer beat up your grandson or something?

You seem to have an unusually harsh context towards cannabis. So what I'm getting out of it (correct me if I'm wrong), is, you don't believe that any plants have therapeutic properties to them?

Did you ever stop to think that most humans are mostly blind? Would Jesus make concessions and enablement for those who have trouble with their belief? Certainly He would and has. Lord help our Unbelief. If Jesus would give cures to the medical industry so people may feel some relief from their ailment, then he would make it available to the poor folks through plants.

That's the amount of compassion that Jesus has for the people. They don't have enough belief to go to Him for it, so go to a doctor. Refuse medicinal plants as kooky? That don't make sense Brother.

Next time you take a factory aspirin, appreciate it the perfection of it. This is the real stuff! Oh, did I mention that it comes from a plant? (Whoops)

Wash it down with a beer. It comes from plants too. Barley, hops and all that? There's a lot of strong evidence out there that many plants are medicinal and therapeutic in nature.

Cannabis just got a bad name because it was listed as the same schedule drugs that Heroin is. It's largely harmless in the right hands.

And, I looked it up, yay Google. Cannabis has way less carcinogens than tobacco. Huge difference. So you may want to research that one some more.

I am also not a fan of big pharma, but acting like ALL drugs out there are useless is a bit over the top.

If all drugs were useless I'm sure doctors would have noticed it by now.

Also: If big pharma is bad, then this would mean that all we have is natural cures. Then cannabis should

actually be appreciated. What if God created cannabis so that people can feel a bit better? That's unless you

overdose, of course. It needs to be taken responsibly. People who use it just to get high are most likely abusing

it and also using a way too high dose.

I can only say that cannabis (sometimes) has effects which are truly remarkable:

Overall sense of wellbeing / improved mind-muscle connection / being calm and relaxed etc


IF these effects could be reproduced every single time then it would be a miracle substance. What also sucks

is that even if the effects are there they don't last very long.

Sometimes when the effect is there I totally enjoy listening to music (way more than normal)

or watching comedy and then all of a sudden it's like "now I'm getting the jokes".

Sometimes even things which you didn't think were funny before suddenly are funny

cause it's like now you understand them. It's really fascinating.

What's also fascinating is the mind-muscle connection. Sometimes, when the effect is present, I feel like working

out or simply moving cause suddenly moving is fun. It's like suddenly it's fun to use your muscles.

This is stuff which I have never experienced with any other medicine/drug/substance.
 
I don't think I would advise people who are healthy and perfectly functionable to try out cannabis,

just in case it should really turn them into a couch potatoe. But people who are already not functionable

could try it and see if it helps them a bit. I see nothing wrong with that. It's like having one additional tool

in your toolbox.
 
My sister is 10 years younger than I am. She has been a regular pot user since the 60s. She looks 10 years older than me.

I had a friend that used Marijuana to go to sleep at night and another who said that it helped her get though some trauma otherwise she might have killed herself.

When my grandmother was experiencing terrible arthritis we used infused coconut butter and It seamed to help.

I tried a brownie at hempfest once I remember looking up at the ceiling for the rest of the night thinking how stupid I was. so yeah it can cause Neurosis.

Its also kind of like drinking it weaken the will so its probably best for those that are in chronic pain rather then those that just want to get high.

@ shittim

Ok, i'll look that up.

@ daisy

Edibles are more problematic as far as I know cause it stays longer in the system. Maybe you also had a too high dose.

Cannabis is not harmless if you use too much it will very likely cause side effects. You cannot just use any amount you want and

expect nothing bad to happen.

@ billyd

This could be caused by the cannabis, BUT it could also be caused by many other things. Maybe your sister has an unhealthy lifestyle

in general. There's just no way to find out why exactly she looks 10 years older. Maybe she goes into the sun a lot. People who lie in the

sun all the time start looking like leatherface.
