This is just people tripping over their subconscious biases and word connotations .
Think for yourself, and realize, most absolutely, that Drugs, Are, Not, Evil.
Abuse is evil.
Some chemicals are too powerful for an ordinary man to control,
and those chemicals are considered Hard Drugs.
DRUGS. WE ARE ALL DOING DRUGS.
Say the word, it's wierd isn't it? Dee Rugs. Druck Guhs.
Fuck everyone else's opinion, becuase those of us who educate ourselves on our hobby KNOW, not think, KNOW that certain DEE RUGS are not bad, nor harmful when used with respect to yourself.
GET OVER IT
IT's A WORD,
no matter HOW many times you try to twist and wiggle it into a more comfortable position in your mind, it's still going to be the exact same thing as any other Drug: Psychoactive.
I don't care if it "comes" from a different source,
if marijuana was completely man-made, we would STILL be praising it for the gift it is. In fact, if you think about it, if Man had only created psychoactives that were relatively harmless, and nature produced opiates stimulants deleriants, then guess what? The bias would be AGAINST NATURE, and we would all be going Oh my that horrible heroin it's made by nature it's imperfect and sooo bad for you, marijuana is created by man and man creates such healthy things, goooo science.
