i am 19 and i was baptized as greek orthodox, i went to church on occasion and that was that, i never felt close to God, until i started doin drugs i realized how much i love him and believe in him, although some say druggies go to hell and God hates it, but why is it illegal to smoke something or snort or shoot the plants God has placed on this earth...?

You sound like my honey. He thought he was so close to God when he was high. All him and his friends talked about was religion. It got old and it will for you too. The drugs will take over sooner or later and you will become a person Who doesn't resemble what you started as. Quit now before drugs ruin or take your life.

NOT JUSTIFYING THE USAGE of the drugs..
but trying to maybe illustrate that the drugs may have opened a window in your mind..persay..
maybe your narrow minded views regarding the lord and the powers unseen, were opened a bit by your reaction to the ILLEGAL drugs..they allowed your defenses to be dropped and you allowed deeper thought into your heart..
BUT you must know this can be done without drugs at any point..aduring quiet reflection, after witnessing a blessing, by helping those in need, by being grateful for your own mind and soul..being humble to the point you realize this world is bigger than just yourself..
It is a wonderful thing you finding your voice and convictions ..just please know that the risks of finding it in drugs with quick gratification are just inviting a whole lot of negative in as well.. I hope you take this as a lesson learned and apply it soberly into your life..
God is there whether your stoned or not.. but your powers are better utilized while sober..
good luck and God bless!.

Is this a question? My answer is for health: The body takes time to clear out toxins, so remember to do this completely on a regular basis. Otherwise, in 10 years time you will not only be an addict (if you aren't already), but you'll realise you can't get that (real-you) time back. God, like all inspiring things exists as much without drugs as with. Drugs are bad for your brain, pease give consideration therefore.
Good luck and I'm happy that you're happy.

It's illegal because the drugs are killing our children, brothers and sisters. Taking food from
a babys and childs mouth. Look at the mothers
who must walk the street in order to feed her
children. all dealers are going to have their
day. I surely wouldn't want to meet my maker
all highed up.

Drugs are a legal issue, not a religious issue. Smoke all the pot you want: it won't affect your Christianity one iota.
Certainly no more than wine and beer do the hyper moral Christians...

Because you are indulging in an unholy act in being unsober?
Or some crap like that....
