yes I do, I have a doctors note for it too. it's very healthy for for people to smoke it, we were born with cannabis receptors in our brain, if you don't believe me, do the research for your self. it was put here on earth by God for our use. it has so many uses too.

Answer 2

1. Your body requires fat to survive, so, yes.
2. Sugar is found naturally, and fits into a balanced diet, so yes.
3. "Bad" cholesterol is not harmful so long as it is balanced by exercise and good choesterol, so yes.
4. I know I can not achieve perfection, so no, but I do try to keep my diet balanced.
5. There are plenty of healthy things to drink besides water, so no. And if you're asking because of the whole "eight glasses a day" thing, you should know that a healthy diet incorporates enough liquid that you do not need to drink eight glasses of just water.
6. I fly when necessary. Riding in a car can be very dangerous. Breathing can be dangerous. If I lived my life without allowing myself to take any risk, it would not be a life worth living.
7. I maintain a decent body weight, according to what my doctor says about me specifically. Keep in mind that it is more important to be fit than pay attention to your weight.
8. Alcohol has many beneficial properties. One does not need to drink to the extreme to enjoy the benefits of alcohol.
9. No, I do not smoke weed. And I don't need it to get along, so why would I want to?

Please note that I mentioned above that I can't achieve perfection, nor do I strive to. I try to take care of my body now so that in sixty years (when I'm 83), my body will still be able to carry me around, and my mind will (hopefully) recognize my children and grandchildren. It's not a hard life to live, and you don't feel deprived because you're still allowed to eat junk food and cookies and whatever else you like, because in moderation these things are good for the spirit.

Hopefully you will feel less cynical after reading my answer.

Peace!

Answer 3

I eat fat, sugar, bad cholesterol, fly, I'm probably overweight, drink alcohol, smoke cigarettes, and weed. I rarely eat healthy, only because I eat whatever I can get which is usually the snacks since I can afford those, and I drink water when I can.

Answer 4

You are the temple of Christ, you need to read where it say to focus more on your faith then what you put into your body, even though to a degree you are right.

Remember you will lose this body when you die, it will be your spirit in Christ Jesus that lives, focus on your walk with God..Heart, Mind, and Soul

Answer 5

Maintenance of the temple is good, but it is even better to preserve the purpose of the temple--to worship and give reverence to that which built it...

Answer 6

Can I walk on water?
Can I turn water into wine?
Can I be a sinless perfect human being?

God died for me so that all my imperfections were laid on the cross.

Would I go run to my cabinette and down a glass of sugar? no,
Would I go run into my closet and grab my gun and shotsomeone ? no.

But we are not "required" to be perfect. we are not "required" to be sinless. We are sinless because of Him. Not by ourselves..

Answer 7

I have wondered this too. Religious people are usually fat (especially Baptist and Penticostal pastors). What about the sin of gluttony? They skim over that one....

Answer 8

First of all, I see where you have not a clue what a "bodily temple" even is.


You explain to me what it is....I'll explain to you how I don't defile mine.
