So here is the deal. I have been smoking marijuana on and off for the last two years- never much more than weekly. I initially would rarely do it because I feared I would get some form of cancer down the road. Recently I have been reading a lot of internet articles about marijuana and cancer and they all seem to contradict one another. I don't know who to believe.

This web-site, cannabis.com, and the members of it, have heavily influenced me into believing that marijuana is fairly harmless, and a good thing in general. I find myself believing that if used for the right reasons and not excessively, marijuana can be a great way to improve the quality of life.

Recently though, I began to wonder: Is long-term marijuana use really safe, or have the fellow smokers of this web-site simply brainwashed me into believing that?

By the way, I am not concerned with symptoms such as memory loss, bronchitis, or lack of motivation. I am only concerned with loss of life (cancer). As long as the amount of pot i smoke isn't life-threatening to me, it is completely worth it. I am here to simply ask if I have been brain washed, and if so, by who? The government or you guys? I also would like to know how much pot smoking makes somebody a "heavy user."

Thanks a lot, Tim
