God said, "See, I give you every seed-bearing plant that is upon all the earth, and every tree that has seed-bearing fruit; they shall be yours for food. Genesis 1.29


So why is it so bad to smoke weed. If it says somewhere else in the bible that you can not, then he's a hypocrite, and why would you worship a douchebag liar?

I don't actually believe in God, but in this hypothetical scenario where the Bible is true...

God gave you Cannabis, not Weed. Plants can be used for all sorts of things, that doesn't mean he approves of using it for anything you like. Example, I doubt he'd much appreciate someone using a hemp rope to strangle someone else. To my knowledge, there's nothing in the Bible about smoking weed, but I suppose some would consider it to be similar to using alcohol to an excess.

umm i think it says that you shouldnt use any substance thats mind altering, dont know where it is though. umm i dont think i may be wrong but they didnt have "alcohol" in thier alcoholic beverages so thier wine was more like grape juice.

Just because it's in the Bible doesn't mean it's true. It's just in the words of some old Jews.

seems like you guys missed those last two words.
so if you're all biblical smoking is a no-go but brownies are game.

The exact inverse to your argument has already been stated. God made poisonous plants and all of the other stuff that we shouldn't eat.

Well, if God didn't want us to do something, He would specify it. For instance, He said we shouldn't eat animals that are cloven-hooved and do not chew cud. That means no pork. However, there is a whole section of packaged pork cuts at my local grocery store. God telling us what isn't Kosher sure as hell didn't stop us from doing want we want.

God never specified not using His plants for altering one's mind. He never protested that His people were getting drunk off of his grapes. First thing Noah did when he got off that aircraft carrier of his was get drunk off of his ass. Then God punishes Noah's son for messing with Noah's drunken slumber, not Noah.

If you subscribe to the Jewish god, Kosher was instituted for the Yids not for the Gentiles...

To keep things consistent within what is being discussed in this thread, I thought we would only be talking about the Jewish God. Referring to Genesis and such.

Technicaly, It isn't.

The stigma of "Don't Smoke Weed" stems from the early twentys, Jazz musicians used it. Prior to that it wasn't that bad. A lot of propaganda films were released by Uncle Sam, and well here we are. A plant as a class 1 drug.

Now, IMO it should be a thing you do in your own home, and not in public, work etc. And the whole "stoner" culture is Shit, they are just lazy teenagers/mid 20's looking to be lazy while the rest of us work our asses off. I am a profesional, and know many others that have/ still use marijuanna, with very steady jobs. I used to know a man who made 6 figures and smoked with me once a week.

Its all how you use it.
PS. Its only a legal issue.
