An excerpt everyone should read
Why would you remind anyone they are breaking rules? Why not let the rules be interpreted by those whose job it is and leave it at that? This position on not objecting to someone because they are breaking a rule, or perhaps trespassing on some sacred taboo is obvious. It allows you to avoid trying to discredit valid statements. A large portion of my argument is directed at medical patients. I agree with previous posters who recognize the reality, and that is the absurdity of cannabis being criminalized. We shouldn't be indifferent towards absurdity, it has a bad habit of allowing for lots of human suffering, something we want to avoid. Unless you're religious, and think you're a sinner, and like the whole self-flagellation thing. I personally don't. If you do, that's great. If you're a consenting adult, by all means indulge in anything, and I mean anything you wish to yourself and only yourself; not your kids. The unfortunate fact is cancer patients, as long as regular tax-paying citizens, the healthy and the sick, are suffering to some degree primarily because of religious prudishness which makes it incredibly difficult to work an already broken political system. This is the activism forum. Everything I write has to do with cannabis, it certainly has to do with medical cannabis, I mention this several times.
Do you have -any- concrete argument? I'm very open to discussion. My purpose isn't to be provocative or even insult anyone here. I have some viewpoints that I'd like to criticize which pertain to Cannabis and Activism. I'm waiting for you to make a claim actually backed up by evidence, or would you like me to take your hearty disagreement with me on faith?ArgoSG Reviewed by ArgoSG on . An excerpt everyone should read This is from "The End of Faith" by Sam Harris, from a chapter devoted to how he believes Religion, and in general, belief without evidence is responsible for some of the absurd laws that still exist in many states in our country: The influence of faith on our criminal laws comes at a remarkable price. Consider the case of drugs. As it happens, there are many substances(many of which are naturally occurring), the consumption of which leads to transient states of inordinate pleasure. Rating: 5
