Hmmm, wonder if we can get a new "Holy Sacrament" protected by law.

TH,
I have also been reading some on the same subject--supposedly the oil used was about 8 or 9 pounds of cannabis in a couple of gallons of oil. I find the subject intriguing to say the least, and would like to purchase Chris Bennett's book on the same subject. The title is something like Sex, Drugs, Violence and the Bible. Apparently there is physical evidence of the widespread use at that time.
Thanks for posting this--what are your thoughts on it?

The story does beg the question:
If the use was wide spread, then why is there a lack of evidence of commercial activity for this type of crop? Surely commercial activity would expose its use (bills of sale, etc.,) among the peoples of the time like other commodities in use back then....
