I have a harsh context for CHEMICAL DEPENDENCY and how easy it is for people to not understand and become chemically dependant.
You can use ANYTHING as a chemical crutch but those who use psychotropic/stupifying means are HIGHLY LIKELY to become chemically dependant. This is everything from stimulants to depressants including alcohol, energy drinks, and of course THC.
Food can also be an addictive substance as evidenced by women's eating habits being heavily influenced by psychosis.
IOW more women suffer mental health issues over eating habits than anything else...
And when someone comes on the forum advertising the benefits of Marijuana smoking.....uhhhh....why doesn't anyone come on here promoting gambling or single malt liquor?
So....expecting a different response to a strong psychotropic drug advocacy is the very definition of insanity.
It should be different because.......?
I like alcohol beverages....but I'm definitely not a regular user and I'm not dumb enough to come on a Christian Forum and advocate it's regular use.
The adversary has been tempting and distracting since Genesis, he is really good at it.
Getting us off on a personal tangent seems to be a favorite tactic, when we have "I, me, my", in our vocabulary we are NOT where He wants us, we are where he
wants us.
We are no longer our own in Christ.

It should be different that everyone would exercise their faith and belief in the Lord. Jesus couldn't do many miracles in His home town because of their unbelief. Jesus wasn't the Son of God to them, He was Joseph and Mary's boy...
I drink one six pack of beer per year During the hottest time of the summer. A very cold beer on a real hot day tastes great. WHo wants to drink every day though? Whoa. One time I had the idea to get a pint of some hard liquor for the medicine bag so to speak. I don't drink whiskey so who knows? It might come in handy some timew, so I bought it. I saved it for a long time but I found a reason to uncork it some night. Not a lot, a shot or two. And I put it back away. About a year after uncorking it, it was empty. All gone. So there's no whiskey in the med kit now and I wont buy more. It barely lasted two years! We'll have no more of that for sure, lol! Too expensive.
I use liquors and liquers for flavoring for various connections and desserts....they contain and provide a more well rounded flavor for these items. This is due to some flavors are fat soluble and others are water soluble....the Spirit in these things bridges the gap. So when i make raspberry or blackberry chocolate truffles the flavors are true. Yeah....you will get a hint of spirit....but it's just part of the flavor. The taste improvement is obvious though because I usually make some without spirit for those who have an allergy to spirits. And some people want to know the difference....and a side by side taste test is possible.
And for those curious....it would take an entire batch of the truffle filling to possibly gain enough spirit to feel the faintest bit of tipsy....right before you got sick from eating that much sugar and chocolate. (Pounds worth)
Like I said....it's just for flavor.
I know what people think when eating them....because if you are unaccustomed to tasting spirit it seems huge. However a quarter teaspoon of the liquor or liquer would be more alcohol than 5 truffles. It won't taste that way....but people are funny.
And even if Baptists are supposed to be in favor of complete Temperance, (complete alcohol prohibition) they tend to eat the spirited candies much much more than those without.
I do not use Cannabis! However, I tried it a few times long ago. And, just like you I felt like it made me able to read faster and comprehend that which was being read.
I am not sure if this was true or not, but it sure felt that way.
As far as it being OK, if you don't drive or endanger anyone, then I would say it is OK. But be watchful that it does not take over your life.
Also, I might mention that I am more concerned that you do not attend church than your use of cannabis. Are you unable to find a church that you agree with?I do not use Cannabis! However, I tried it a few times long ago. And, just like you I felt like it made me able to read faster and comprehend that which was being read.

Mostly just haven't been in recent years as my insomnia got out of hand.. Like finally falling asleep at 3-6am most days.. Kinda makes it hard to wake up early enough and still be functional to be able to attend.
As a ex mental health nurse I can tell you of numerous young people I looked after that had psychosis as a result of smoking dope.
Watch out!
You might get mooned by one.
Someone has a double account for displaying immature insults at those who disagree.
The account name is Dej96.
The moderator banned the obscenity.
Thank you for speaking up.
I am urging great caution and reservations about using Marijuana....
It's not exactly a popular position.
It just happens to be a more truthful one.

I do not advertise. Maybe you should take more time and read what ppl actually write. I clearly said I would not recommend it to
healthy functionable people. *facepalm*
Do whatever you want. Stay away from every single medication out there. I hope you never need antibiotics or blood pressure meds
or drugs for arrhythmia.
It's really funny how someone can be pro-mrna vaccines and at the same time crap his pants when it comes to cannabis. This is
beyond ridiculous. I'm done with this conversation.
I suggest you get another booster. I'm sure there's a new killer-variant on the rise.... *spooky*

Yeah these idiots probably overdosed big time. Overdosing is always bad no matter what you're taking. Duh.
Interesting. I believe you. Let me ask you if you know?
As a Christian nurse, do those same patients also have other symptoms? I guess what I'm asking is, do you think it's possible that some or most of those people had demonic problems?
I've heard it taught that one can get an illness and that alone will attract demons which enter and make it worse...Or, it could have been an evil spirit in the beginning and it being there brought on the illness.
Which came first, the chicken or the egg? The demon or the illness? What is your Christian take on that?

Re: Is Cannabis sinful if it helps focus?
I would recommend allowing one's local criminal code decide whether specific uses of
pot are sinful.
● Rom 13:1-5 . . Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is
no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have
been established by God. Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling
against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on
themselves.
. . For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do yo
want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and he will
commend you. For he is God's servant to do you good. But if you do wrong, be afraid,
for he does not bear the sword for nothing. He is God's servant, an agent of wrath to
bring punishment on the wrongdoer. Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the
authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also because of conscience.

This is what I wanted to talk about. It not only can turn on schizophrenia/bipolar, it will permanently make existing conditions worse. To the point you are in an institution talking to people about your days on stage singing during the holocaust and Hitler. I've seen it, true story. There will come a point in your dope life that nothing will help you, no medication will have any benefit for you. For the rest of your life you will be out of your mind.
Marijuana and THC vapes are highly unregulated and not held to strict standardization.
Not to mention all the other chemicals in it.
Just because someone claims a specific dose amount does not make it true....because it is unregulated and unmonitored. There are no safety or quality checks.
Even baby aspirin has a dozen more safety, purity, and standardization protocols than this stuff....same with vitamin C tablets.
There is zero regulation....
EVERY supplement and candy on the drug store shelf including hair shampoo to sunscreen has standards to meet.
But not Marijuana.
That right there should be screaming that something is wrong.
There's more FDA standards applied to a pack of chewing gum than Marijuana. The testing of chewing gum gum involving thousands of test people, data monitors, and etc....
But not one serious study on THC concerning quality control and adverse reactions.
EVERY SUPPLIMENT AND MEDICATION goes through all sorts of testing before release on the market but not Marijuana.
This should be front row center of Conspiracy theories right there. But not a word Is ever said. And that in itself is very very scary.
Why are you not asking "WHY?".
They have violated EVERY safety protocol, refused to enact standardization, and given zero adverse effects but made it available to be used.
That should be a clue that something nefarious is going on.
