God creates, Satan does not.
Why do religious people like to blame cocoa plants, marijuana plants, poppy plants, even cactus plants that produce mescaline, microbes and bad germs on Satan.
Where in the Bible does it list Lucifer creating human tampering specified things to place on earth?
Are you people thinking strait?

Yep you are so accurate. God created everything, so it is good. Everything God created had a purpose. Humans are so smart and can do all types of things with different God given plants, minerals, and everything on this wonderful earth. Hemp or Marijuana, could be used to make a ancient product, called rope. Rope was used in early ships, and for all types of use. A real valuable commodity. Later on in the years, someone found a way to smoke hemp. They found out it was a drug and made them feel different when they smoked it. Didn't take long for word to get around about smoking hemp and its effects. Some people live for the high feelings of hemp or marijuana. Many crimes have been commited because of hemp. Then again, I have heard where hemp, or marijuana can be used for medical purposes. So it is good in many ways. Religious people try to use all the intelligent resources thy can find to help the Human race , live a better and more peaceful life. We are just saying that it is everyone's choice to use or make whatever they like. Either you follow in God's footsteps or you follow in satan's. . It is not God's fault that human's choose to make things from the God given plants, and products that in one way or the other can produce negative results. Dont' blame God ,for what people choose to do.

I am religious and I do not blame that stuff on satan. we can reason, thats what makes humans different than every other life form. So it is free will. I do not think pot is bad, it helps people deal with a lot of pain, what would be better smoke a joint or pop some oxycontin? I think God would rather have us smoke a bit of his green plant he created, than get addicted to pain killers. Also every thing is a sign, wether someone see's the sign or not. it a sigh none the less

Anything organic will at some point gain controversy. If it will fill the pockets of some people....then there are the people who would improve or at least try to on a 'better mouse trap'....supply and demand...i.e. if it suits ones purpose then let the pharmaceutical companies have it...nothing is wrong in its natural state. Only when it is fraught with and experimented on does a result, often Nil and other times by trick of tail happen to be that one thing that works.
yes, what is natural is good...i agree with that. I do not use the bible as a reference point for anything and yes I have read it....
THO...on this I stand my ground...we live in a throw away society and it is often filled with empty promises & lies unfortunately.
The keepers of our banks are as well to be watched. I cannot use Satan here to qualify anything & would give you all of the truths if in fact I could.....this answer i am sure will pale amongst othrs, however I have spoken my piece.....
Organics are good.....
Thanks....Lioncourt

in case you've faith in God and that God created all issues for the great thing about guy, you may want to understand he also created poor predators, fairly poisonous flora, between different issues. And as for the quicker Corinthians quote, save in thoughts, that change right into a _letter_ to the Corinthians because of their habit, no longer a actuality to all of mankind. yet, I nonetheless imagine marijuana might want to be criminal, yet no longer over the counter. i might want to reassess that stance, because I truly have a sturdy chum from Amsterdam, and he stated it change into ironic because the stuff change into so accessible, maximum childrens did not truly smoke it that a lot if in any respect.

Life evolves, whether it was made by God or not, life evolves and changes. Sometimes for the worse, for us. Bad germs are detrimental only to us, not the bacteria or virus. Marijuana is a hallucinogen because it alters our brains, but it's just a plant nonetheless. Poppy plants fall under the same category.

If God created a rope would that mean we would have to hang ourselves with it? We have free will to enjoy creation and to use it for the purposes it was intended for or to abuse it. The poppy is a beautiful flower meant to be enjoyed as part of Gods creation. Man has discovered a way to pervert its use as a drug. This does not make the poppy a bad creation it just means that man has taken something meant for good and used it for evil.

I'm so tired of people wanting to put the bible into everything... Why does it even matter. The bible was probably written by people on marijuana in the first place... What else would possess them to write the thing other than that... Don't say God either.

Lol...I've never heard people say that Satan created those things. That's funny. I'm religious. I believe that God created everything on the earth for a reason. Everything serves its own purpose.

It`s not always that something is bad.It`s the way we use things that are bad sometime.There are many things that were made for our benefit,but we have taken them to use as we want for recreational purposes.He created the rocks as well,but he didn`t intend for us to hit each other in the head with them.He created the ingredients for liquor,but He does not approve of drunkeness.We need to learn how these things need to be used and not try to do as we please and blame it on the Lord,or hide our weakness behind His creation.
