I see what you're saying, but a drug is just a definition that distinguishes whether the molecule is synthesized within an organism or outside an organism. Anything synthesized inside your body is considered a hormone, but when it comes from another organism and you put it in your body its considered a drug. Since we're talking about THC, and THC comes from pot, by definition it is a drug.
