Cannabis vs Alchohol and Other Man Made Pharmacuticals

OpenFireGlass

Well for starters I do have a Prescription for Cannabis (insomnia / depression)...

Why would I want to take Pharmacuticals for insomnia/depression? I mean, what if I get prescribed/addicted to a pill, that one day I might not be able to afford? (if you/I grow cannabis it's more/less free)..

Now The Moral issue... who is more likely to beat the shit out of their kids? A drunk person, of a person under the influence of cannabis?

Is Cannabis a gateway drug? Or is Tobbacco and alchohol the real culprits?

Now I'm not saying that a person that uses Cannabis always thinks clearly, But at least they Think... when someone is under the influence of alchohol or (manufactured) opiates, they "generally" don't think..

I do occasionally have a drink... I have nothing against having a drink... Why is it that "some" people who consume alchohol have such a problem with someone who uses cannabis?.. It's not illegal everywhere...

and for those that believe in God.. Why would IT create something that we should not take advantage of?

I prefer alcohol because it totally leaves your system in about 12 hours.

I don't care if other people use it matter of fact my brother in-law is always doing it around me

keeps asking if I want some. I say nine.

for those that believe in God.. Why would IT create something that we should not take advantage of?

This can be said about just about anything so I don't buy this argument.

THC does too. It is the metabolites that stick around.

Is Cannabis a gateway drug?

In a way it is. But I believe this is because it is illegal and so you got to associate with and become a criminal to get/use it. (except in your case) You buy it from ppl who are ususally more interested in selling you other stuff that they will make more money on.

Were it legal I would not consider it a gateway drug.

Its a social view point learnt at a young age

I'm not a believer myself... But I am interested in the "opinions" of believers...

I'm a believer tho not a religionist. probly the only one on this board .LOL I think what happens is that when drugs are easily accessible then the kids can get into it much more easier .Not saying it's a big factor because they do anyway . I think making something like cannabis legal could lower the crime rate even tho since people will steal to supply a habit , be it ciggarettes , alcohol or illegal stuff . I think hemp has so much more stuff to offer than THC and can be used very productively . I like the libertarian stand on the issue of decriminalizing some drugs like cannabis . It's really not worth locking people up over it . At this point millions of people would be considered criminals over it , so what's the point? I'm not saying God approves of drug use just that we as a nation need to be more open minded about certain issues regarding the drug issue. I think if they actually enforced every law to the letter there wouldn't be anybody left on the outside . LOL
