If God gave "every green plant for food" why is marijuana in magic brownies illegal?

Question

Alternatively, how about chewing coca leaves like the Andeans?

Genesis 1:29-30
Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food.” And it was so.

Fundamentalist Christians say evolution, abortion, homosexuality, and a plethora of other things are immoral based on their fundamental reading of the Bible. Where is the fundamental reading here? Does this passage tell us that creating and eating fruits without seeds is an abomination?

Answer 1

You are right in the idea of marijuana being blessed by the God of the ancient bible. In fact "Christ" means "the anointed one" and the recipe for the anointing compound was cannabis based. The skin being the largest organ, Jesus would have been so high he would have been walking on water.

However, there is a separation of church and state, so the bible's endorsement of marijuana does not necessarily guarantee legality.

As for why it's illegal, no one seems to know. Originally it was because of a lot of propaganda which has since been proven false, and yet it continues to be illegal.

There's concern about teens smoking marijuana, but having it illegal makes it easier to get since drug dealers don't card. These days it's easier for teens to get marijuana than beer.

There's a claim that marijuana is a gateway drug to other drugs which are dangerous, however the reason why it's a gateway drug is because it's illegal and so to get it, people have to deal with the same people who sell the dangerous drugs.

Marijuana is not particularly addictive. As opposed to legal products such as alcohol, tobacco, cough syrup (DXM addicts), and Blistix (I have no actual evidence about Blistix being addictive, It's just my own theory)

So honestly, I am not able to answer your question because I don't know why marijuana is illegal. Sorry to have wasted your time.

Answer 2

you utilize information to return to a type who you adore and don't love? What a horrid existence you're able to desire to steer. Even the theory that we've an information of how the international works is insane. we don't additionally be attentive to the way our very own innovations works. in reality, the only concept we've yet proposed that explains why we are right here, M concept, has no information for it (or against it). the only reason all and sundry believes in M concept is with the help of the fact our universe may well be mathematically impossible without this rationalization. Your assumptions are huge and poorly seen. the different of excellent judgment and reason. God would not require information because of the fact he's no longer a actual function surviving in this international. he's a philosophic proposition. examine Marx and Nietzsche in case you decide directly to be attentive to why you're able to no longer have faith in a god. Get unsleeping. "So easily your final sentence implied that there is 0 tangible information to help the existence of god? thank you it particularly is all i mandatory to be attentive to." Yeah, that's what i assumed. there is likewise 0 tangible information for the only rationalization we've for the creation of the universe, yet curiously it is not illogical to have faith in that. You atheist ideologues makes actual atheists looks undesirable. you decide on close up once you're around adults and attempt to earnings some thing. God is a philosophy, no longer a concept. It takes attention of huge cultural traits and how societies think of to make a hypothesis approximately God. an identical requirement isn't there for any scientific concept, any 'tangible information' based theory.

Answer 3

Because "pot" as we call it is addictive and unless one is using it for medical purposes it is better to leave it alone.

Pot losses its "potential" if you will and many people who get addicted will start using crack,esctacy, cociane LSD to continue that High. There are much better things to do in life than "get high".

Answer 4

To make it legal based on the Bible would equate to theocracy, which I strongly oppose. (It is a very good argument, though!)

Answer 5

marijuana has its uses but I don't think God meant to go out and get high on it.
