Still I would like to see the direct scripture where weed is mentioned as I said before the majority of Christians have been wrong before have they not?There are alot of things that scripture does not directly deal with. Yet christians seem to be sure of those beliefs. Why is it different with weed then in your view?
Could you give some examples of these things? For instance the word trinity isn't in the Bible but it is clear mention of the Father Son and holy ghost. The bible doesn't use the term homosexual but it does say a man shouldn't lay with a man like he lays with a woman.....All these scriptures are clear and literal.
As far as there being a lot of things in the scripture that don't directly deal with a sin but most Christians believe they are right. Historically I have four issues in which Christians thought they were sure on 1)the crusades 2)Slavery 3)The Jim Crow laws 4) Genocide against the native Americans.
My view is different because I believe that you can not add sins to the scriptures. I feel that the scriptures are to be taken very literal.
You say the bible does not deal directly with weed. Well I guess it depends on your definition of directly. Does the bible mention the word weed? Nope of course it doesn't.
Are you sure the bible doesn't mention the weed in any form or language in the bible. I personally bid to differ I think that weed is mentioned in the Bible. As I have said before weed was being used early in the BC era historically speaking.
Does the bible tell us to be clear minded & sober and other similar things? Yes. Are you clear minded when smoking weed?
Defined clear mind? Because I took my SATs after I had smoked and I got a 1400 out of 1600 which isn't to bad. I have probably failed a total of 5 test in my school career and they were all math classes.
Nope. That is easily evidenced by the reasons people give for smoking it in the first place. I also speak from personal experience. So the bible directly speaks about being clear minded. So is it possible that it is directly speaking about using weed while speaking about other things as well?
Why would the bible indirectly give orders that is directly in the bible.
Just disagree with you.
Perhaps then you could explain why the scripture tells wives and husbands to submit to each other in love if as you claim the bible does not say that.
21Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.
22Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
23For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
24Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
I think the scripture explains itself so I won't even argue it.
Out of curiosity why does your friend smoke weed if it has no affect? If it was addictive then one could understand but you said no effect which means it is not addictive as that would be affecting your friend.
He doesn't smoke weed has no affect. The few times he has smoked he has asked us whats the point was....He feels weed is pointless he does smoke those Indian cigs the make him use the bathroom he has stomach problems and a bad temper...Its a well know fact before he came to america he was involved in a drug related homicide but he made it before he could be prosecuted he was 13 years old....So I guess as he says it he's "sleeping with some ghosts.".....maybe he tried to smoke weed to ease his mind.idk
