erm.. a lil terminology confusion going on here guys.

coke is a stimulant. so is caffeine, nicotine and amphetamines (speed)

PCP and ketamine are classified disassociatives.

theres some debate whether to lump pot with hallucinogens or sedatives but its classified hallucinogen

[teknodppr]

im pretty sure that alcohol is classified as a depressant. disassociatives are drugs that seperate your mind from your body or so i was reading.

[Euphoric]

ooh yeah it is a depressant

yes marijuana may be a drug but why cant it be a herb at the same time? while there are many other drugs out there made by man like pharmecueticals and other over the counter healing drugs, there are also drugs made by mother nature that heal and those are called herbs! there are two different kinds of herbs:culinary herbs and healing herbs. Marijuana is definetly a healing herb! i am really high rite now so if you dont understand it well then your a FUCKING MORON and dont try to fucking argue with me cus that is how it is and there is no other truth!

[Etrain]

^^True. *Is high also*

[hempheadjack]

Cannabis is a plant.
Humans use the plant in a variety of ways; one of them being manufacture of materials, such as hemp.
The other method of using the PLANT (a natural thing) is to smoke it.

I guess that we call it 'a drug', because it has a neuralogical effect (ie, psycodellic) on our brains when we smoke it.
We drink coffee to 'wake us up', we drink alcohol too...all of these things has an effect on our bodies - inevitable really, because they become a part of our 'contents'.
Like, if you put salt into water, the water becomes salty; the salt has affected the water by changing its chemical structure (ingredients)

Cannabis is not a drug, it is a plant - we use it AS a drug...

I dunno, maybe I'm not making sense...Prozac is a drug, because it is manufactured as such.

I'm gonna start rambling now, but fuck it....lmaooo

A cow is a cow.
But we use the cow in a variety of ways; manufacturing clothes, and for food.
When we eat the cow, it has an effect on our bodies....
The cow doesnt become food, until we eat it....therefore, it should follow that cannabis doesn't become a drug, until we use it as such...untill then , it is a plant - nothing more.

'Herb' is used as a term of endearment, I think, not as a classification of its plant-status.
Basil is a herb, as is Rosemary....they got married and had Herbie...which was a car...

...hang on.....errr...

Right, so yes...no, cannabis isn't a herb in the same vein as Thyme...but thyme waits for no man....and I'm tired......much like Herbie has tires..four of them....well, five, if you count the spare.....

Just think of it as 'grass'...another term of endearment....otherwise, we would have fields of 'grass' with cows eating it...which, when we eat the cows, would totally fuck us up, I think....hahaha, I wonder how many vegetarians there'd be then!!!

Yes, .....so, what was the question?
