Pot is a plant,
That grows in the ground.
If God didn't want it,
It wouldn't be around.
So all you ******* that don't get high,
Shut the **** up and give it a try
I agree with that ^^

God made the plant, did He tell you to smoke it, God made the plant you get hops from for beer, but did He tell you to make beer, He made the tobacco plant, but did He tell you to to smoke it, He gave you free will. Man choose's to use those things the way they do, God didn't tell you to. God also gave you a brain, and He did expect you to use that.
If something harms the body or the mind, even with out belief in God, why would you want to use it.

It is because it was a favored intoxicant of a group that the US was marginalizing during the period when hemp (marijuana) was made illegal.
IF it was made legal to grow, there are many uses other than just as a narcotic substance for the plant, including as a base for industrial lubricants, biofuels, thread for durable cloth and potential medical used in the treatment of nausea in Cancer patients. HOWEVER, there are entrenched prejudices that need to be combatted befor there can be a more balanced view of the plant.

Many in my generation smoked weed. Most quit because of unpleasant experiences when they were high. Being higher than a kite, unable to even communicate, became un-fun.
God did not make weed for you to smoke. Man takes credit for that.

The forces that be don't want you smoking pot because it subdues the aggregation in everyone that they use to manipulate us. When was the last time you had a fight or even an argument when stoned? The Rastafarian's, and myself, believe that pot smoking brings them closer to an understanding of God and life.

Just because God made plants, doesn't mean He made them for us to smoke.

Because most people are stupid and gullible, and willing to believe what they're told by 'somebody who knows better'.
ADDENDUM: Smoking isn't the only way to utilize cannabis, you know.

thats the government doing what it does best brain-washing everyone, making them believe that pot is a "terrible" drug while beer and liqour are 'great' because its easier to collect taxes on something that has to be processed and packaged than it is on a plant anyone can grow in their backyard .if the gov. cant control its black listed.
