Answer 1

I think that if the dope is really helping you that much, then you should go ahead and use it. Forcing you to do otherwise is inhumane and wrong. It depends however, on many considerations. First of all, you should talk to your doctor.

But I also think that God having made it has nothing to do with whether or not you should smoke it. Would you smoke anything that God made? You wouldn't want to smoke molten lava would you?

We don't need to go into whether or not God approves of dope, but as far as human society is concerned, sometimes laws don't think of everything and don't alway work as intended.

Regarding the affect it might have on your children, would it be possible to smoke it somewhere outside of the house?

Personally, I would talk this over with your doctor first. Yes, it's illegal, but I'll bet you'd be surprised at how understanding your doctor will be, since the symptoms you're experiencing are so severe. It will also be a confidential conversation. He may not be allowed to prescribe (or even SUGGEST) that you smoke pot, but you could at least get a sound medical opinion as to whether or not this would be a wise course of action.

Talk to your doctor!

I think you need a second opinion on your physician. You need a neurologist...which quiting smoking would save you enough money alone to pay for! ;) But, yes, I believe that it has it's medicinal purposes for those that think they need it. But, you have to realize how incapacitated you are while on it. You should video yourself sometime when you are high...you'll be surprised just how loopy and stupid you look compared to how you percieve yourself. Would you drink alcohol and watch your kids? What if one needed a ride to the hospital? It's the same thing w/ opiods for pain relief too, you just have to weigh your options, and consider help in childcare as well if you can't live without the pain meds. It's really a moral choice rather than a medical choice. Good luck though, I know there are alot of options out there, you just have to seek it out......

I'm with you and I am an EMT. Since marijuana was criminalized it just paved the way for crack, meth and ecstacy. Gateway drug my a**! Anyway, the benefits do outweigh the very minor risks of short term memory loss. Studies have never proven anything solid on the long term effects of smoking marijuana. Aside for short term memory loss everything else has been speculative. I have seen the medicinal effects of pakalolo and i am all for it. Hey, I don't know about you, but I know what that burning bush was that Moses spoke to God through! lol! LEGALIZE IT! Good luck to you in your endeavor to get well!

Answer 4

Pot should definately be legal. The only reason it isn't legal is because the government can't figure out a way to make a large profit from it because it can be so easily grown. More people die of cancer, liver disease, and drunk driving accidents every year, and yet cigarettes and alcohol are legal and pot isn't. when's the last time you heard of someone wrecking, killing the innocent along the way, because they were really high....you haven't because it doesn't happen. The government makes money off of it being illegal because they profit from all the busts and arrests. It's really f-ed up...something should change. Greedy bastards.

Answer 5

Actually I know alot of people young and older that smoke week on a regular basis for various reasons. This doesn't make them "bad" people in my book...who am I to judge. I personally don't like how smoking weed makes me feel. I guess I am super sensitive to the chemical in it. As far as the right or wrong of it. There are many temptations in this world that God made...maybe weed is one of them.

Answer 6

God made everything good but man abuses them. thats the reason we have problems like hiv, avian flu, and the like.
re your headaches. why not try forgiveness? i remember hearing a sermon once about someone who had severe headaches and the doctors cannot treat the problem. the pastor found out that he hated his dad for 35 years and now he even forgot what the reason is. he went and reconciled with his father, and the headaches are gone.
thanks.

Answer 7

many things were made from plants. the problem is that much of what is produced is a by-product from the plants. the items used make them illegal or regulated. its hoe plants effect people that makes the government regulate them. there are many plants that are legal that can be used to smoke in many countries. it wasn't until the act of 1906 that passed regulating plants and chemicals that were considered drugs. coke was in the bottles of medicine for centuries. coke drink was actually named after the drug as it had large amounts in it until 1906 when it was banned, but they kept the name.

Answer 8

Most definetly. I have the same problem with them headaches. I also have a son but i try not to smoke around him. Although i figure he will learn it sooner or later. Dope is NOT wrong.

Answer 9

That God made something (whether God made the material universe is another topic entirely) has nothing to do with how we use it. We judge by the results whether something or some use of something is good or bad.

Smoking pot for medical reasons is OK by me. Smoking pot recreationally, though, is a stupid thing to do, especially if is is a daily habit.

Answer 10

be patient. u will succeed. your logic about God is faulty. God also made lions, but does that mean a man make himself a nice meal for them. God also gave brains to human. i am sure u r on the right path. try to divert ur attention. keep working hard. even physical labour helps. ur kids are imp.
