An Arizona couple have said they have to step down as leaders of their church which considers marijuana a sacrament and a deity. They state the impending federal charges filed against them has made it impossible for them to lead their church. The government, which has brought the lawsuit against them, maintains this is merely a front for drug trafficking.
The couple feels that the judge will have no recourse but to rule in their favor as they believe their religion to be sincere. They maintain that this invasion and upcoming trial is a spiritual invasion.
So, should this 'church' be allowed to continue it's practices even though the practices contradict with federal law?
