Jesus is against cannabis.
The answer to all our problems is both laughingly simple and numbingly complex, we must learn to truly 'love our neighbors as ourselves'.
We must learn to empathize with the ones we deal with each day, meticulously trying to be fair, honest and charitable with all men in all matters. Our 'me first' attitudes must go, both individually and nationally.
When we are mad, jealous, greedy, etc., we must step back and put ourselves in the shoes of our target, and act as we would wish to be treated.
It does sound laughingly simple doesn't it, but ancient grudges, modern economic and idealogical conflict, and human weakness render it deceptively and mind-numbingly complex (as we're seeing in Iraq).
Congratulations to all who strive every day to live this way, perhaps falling short sometimes but never ceasing to try. To those who haven't made it or even those who haven't even started, I leave you with the words of the immortal bard (Coolio :rastasmoke:):
"C U When You Get There"
Jesus is against cannabis.
There really is no debatable link between weed and religion, especially not interepretations of the bible done by 15 year old stoners. It is true that God didn't intend weed to be had by all, just to smoke up Jesus, his apostles and a dozen of his closest disciples.
It was actually the Christians who were able to get their hands on a couple hundred seeds and brought the power of marijuana to all. This, too, is the main reason Christianity swept through Europe in the Middle Ages and planting on different continents was the driving force for the missionaries to spread their word.
It's also the reason Christianity was founded in the first place, just one strong issue among a bunch of tiny ones that they didn't agree on with the Jewish people. The Christians knew they needed a little more to convince future generations that there were definitive differences between the two, so, in a moment of stoned confusion, a Christian representative said "Well how about we think of Jesus as the son of God, and the others, urr, think of.. wait, what was I talking about? Oh, prophets!"
And so it goes.
Jesus is against cannabis.
Did He tell you Himself?.
or was it hearsay'
the Living Jesus I know, in prayer and walking the walk.. My relationship includes smoking herb. I've asked for forgiveness if it's against His beliefs. But also prayed and thanked Him for this creative miracle herb that heals quite a bit of my illnesses. Thank-God and Praise His name for creating the seed.

Let's try and remember the rules are different in the Old Testament and in the New Testament.
Old Testament = Slavery + Hypocrisy = Jewish Testament (Not trying to be discriminative I have nothing against any Jewish peoples or their beliefs)
New Testament = Jesus preaching to be better humans = Christian Testament
This one is less concerned about doing petty bad things and their punishments, it's more on what you SHOULD do, Christian or not, religious or not, it's about how to be a good person and how to treat your fellow human beings with respect and honor, regardless of what you consume.
In my opinion the New Testament is a different more broader yet simpler way to describe what God really wants, which is that his "children" are good upstanding beings worthy of his blessings, consuming Cannabis or Alcohol or anything for that matter, as long as they don't hinder your ability to be a good person, is not considered sinful.

Elizabeth Clare is NOT the messiah.
Whatever her opinion about cannabis, i could care less.
The herb is the key to a new understanding of the self, the universe and Jah.

Jesus loves the herb.
yea but it also says, to indulge to much in anything is bad and the use of anything to destort ur brain, is not good to do as u don't think as clear or fast as u need to. and i should say what that really means is i think it is ok to take these things, as for med use not to just go smoking to get high just to get high. but rather for med use as with alcohol or anything else not to abuse the fuck out of it just because u can!!
