interesting post mike, but just as you have interpreted passages of the Bible to support cannbis use, people interpret passages to apply all sorts of crazy rules. If the Bible was the absolute truth, then why is there so much conflict about its meaning and message? why have the followers of Christ factioned themselves into hundreds of subgroups with plural interpretations of his teachings, and who do you think is right? My point is that many people have faith and it helps them, and helps them help others, and that's great. But to claim to be able to show someone the "truth" is nigh on blasphemy. The nature of man is that he can only discover the truth for himself, therefore dogmatic teaching of religion leads to badly supported/misconceived beliefs since the individual has not reached an understanding by himself. I think you should keep in mind that people may need to travel their own path to find the truth that is truly meaningful to them.

When i say "taking the piss" i mean it sounds like your having a laugh.
Hang on, you say that you dont care if im religious or not. But you also say that you want to use weed to reach out to non religious people? You say i dont have to go to church, but the christian faith dictates that to be a real christian you have to display your faith in a place of worship. Why is christianity filled with so much contradiction?
Lulu - Im not trying to start a row, i just have my own opinion, and when im in a pissy bad mood it generally comes over a tad more angrily than intended. Its just so far in my life the christian faith hasnt come across very well to me...
Here is my question : What is your purpose? Why are you here? At the end of your first (mammoth) post you said you hoped that it would help somebody. Help them with what? I have read everything you have written, and my answer is probably in there somewhere, but maybe i missed some bits around point Number 9 when my eyes started to bleed.
I can almost see what your saying. But i think most of us here are happy with our spirituality, and if there not then i think its frankly unwise to take advice concerning your immortal soul from somebody you met over the internet.
Carry on posting and i will carry on reading. Thats all. Peace

Hello Meek Mike my name is Dylan. im 15. I want some advice on things and about pot. Let me begin :). Ok in June i got caught smoking pot. My parents where crushed. They made me go talk to a Police officer, And take a drug test to see if any more other drugs where in me but there wasnt anymore but pot. My dad i knnow use to smoke pot when he was a kid. Hes 43. I wonder if the heredity passed on to me? Now ive recently started smoking pot again. Basically because i see nothing wrong with it and it makes me feel good. I believe oin god just like you mike. I go to a Baptist Chruch and i like it. (by the way i havent got a drug test in awhile) But anywho if by any chance i was to get one and failed what should i say to my dad?¿ Because if i show him those versus and he porbally wont beileve me, hes a strong christian but he thinks canabis is only for medical use not recreational. And if i get caought again ill probally wont get a car and since im soooo close i would be really mad. He threanted that i would get a car if he get me again. I think its great there is a THC-minister. Another question, 1.) do u thin that pot will ever be LEGALIZED in the USA? Becuase i hear in Canada there about to legalize it. And it seems to me Canada has there stuff straight. Please info me back on all the stuff i asked. Sorry for the crappy spelling or bad spacing. ETC.

Holotrope-
To start off I really enjoyed your post. You yourself have told many truths in just a short paragraph. I agree that alot of church's some what promote some crazy rules. I think that's where the conflict comes in. Some church's disagree with some of the rules put up by other church's. It truly is said to see so many Christ followers divided because of a diffrent political labels. Personaly I think a lot of them have it right. Only because a lot of them follow Jesus Christ. In my belief system if you follow Christ's teachings your right. Again that is my belief system and as you know everyone has there own.

I love this statement. Faith is the key thing. Faith in general has helped so many people.
I didn't think through what I wrote before the long post. You see I have done many hours of study in the Bible and I made up a formula to show my father a pastor my belief system about cannabis. I had to show him that God is using my weakness to help spread his good news. I have posted the formula on other sights but I try to put a diffrent begining on each site. I was wrong for saying that they haven't accepted the truth. Thank you for pointing that out to me because that could have offended many people. I appoligize if I did offend anyone by it. What I should have wrote is "the truth to my understanding" I know Christ has helped me and my friends see that Christ has so they agree that I am telling them the truth to my understanding. Each person does have their own path just as being a person that talks Christ to people that might not know about him is my path.
I hope I have cleared up any confusion that I stupidly caused. I like to find out what others believe so may I ask what you believe. I try to learn from everything and everyone.

I don't like religions. I try to talk to people about Jesus Christ. I let people know of my religion so that way if they want to smoke legal they have a way. I understand that some christian churchs say that you have to have a place to worship but the Bible does not say that. It says that you can worship God any where because God is everywhere. Persoanlly I think the churchs have so much conflict is because over two thousand years people evolve diffrently as do religions. People get into power that twist things then its becomes a foundation. It sucks but the best thing to do is try to change it before any more things get twisted. To answer your question I am here to conversat with fellow pot smokers. Christians have banned me from there sites because I prove them wrong ever time about cannabis. They get made and kick me off. So I figured I'd give the pot smokers a try to see if my fellow peers would accept me or see if they would do as my peer Christians did. I posted the mammoth letter to help people that have had the same problem as me. Misunderstanding Christians that judge when they have their own flaws and weaknesses. I hope I didn't come off as a fanatic I'm just a pot smoking christian looking for a place to chat.

Alright, you posted a lot of questions and I feel I shoud address some topics. I started to smoke pot at 15 and to be honest I wish I would have waited a few years. At first I just did it cause it was fun. Like you I see no wrong in it. But like I didn't want to upset my parents or worse get kick out of my house. What I suggest is to be honest with your parents. Since you feel and think that there is no wrong in using cannabis talk to your parents about it. Yes the crap will hit the fan at first but like all things it will smooth over. My parents don't like that I use cannabis but I had many conversations with them to show that I am sincere about my beliefs. They most likey will say while your under my roof you do as I say. Which is correct. Your 15 I know your smart because you want to address the issue rather then avoid it. If need be confess that you smoke pot but go through your beliefs and show that your sincere. Of course choose the right time to do it. It might not be the best time over dinner. Since your dad has smoked pot before I think he might be willing to listen. You might have to suggest a father son camp out or something like that but plan and address it as an adult. Cannabis is a hard thing for parents to deal with because they think your going to jump to other crazy drugs the bad ones like meth or crack. I only use natural drugs. Things God created. With no additives. Cannabis every day mushrooms maybe twice a year. I'd advise just sticking to cannabis because for some people like my friend mushrooms can be to spiritual. My friend said he saw angels and devils fighting over him as he was yacking in the toilet. Personaly never seen that but shrooms play many tricks on many people. Best thing to do summed up is be honest if your honest they have nothing on you. Keep up the faith, I'll be praying and God Bless. You'll make it.
