perhaps it is the other way around, my friends...

because plants were around for so long before people (plants oxygenated the planet, and as a result more complex organism could begin thriving), that probably goes for cannabis as well.

in fact i think i learned that our bipedal hairy chimp-like ancestors were using plants, including cannabis, for medicinal purposes even then.

what i'm proposing is, since cannabis was here before man, perhaps man was created in such a way that he could benefit from this plant. and really all plants.

we are born of this earth much like apples, our cooking herbs, and our favorite herb - marijuana. it's likely that the earth would also give birth to an animal that could utilize what it had already spawned.

in short (hehe), we are here to smoke weed my friends!
