The bible calls it [a tree] with fruit,
not a plant.
Not all dinosaurs ate fruit.
What overlooked verse are you alluding to ?
You think [The forbidden fruit] was psychedelics,
And [Manna] was psychedelic mushrooms,
and that the [tree of life] is a mind-altering drug.
No Marijuana is not the tree of life.
Marijuana
Marijuana has been legalized for recreational use.
Making marijuana legally available is a bad idea.
It's just Getting high on chemical substances.
Marijuana is a potent mind-altering drug that can cause serious harm. Not only has marijuana become much more accessible, it has also become more potent.
Marijuana has both short-term and long-term ramifications on the body. Marijuana use leads to changes in mood, altered senses, and impaired body movement, as well as impaired thinking, memory and problem solving.
Why would legalization of another mind-altering drug the right thing to do? The U.S. is already in the midst of a devastating prescription opioid and heroin crisis. And individuals from all walks of life struggle with the abuse of alcohol and drugs.
The younger the user, the more damage is caused. Marijuana is a psychoactive drug that impairs brain
development, especially for anyone under age 21.
Teenagers who use marijuana experience anxiety, depression and a reduction in thinking, memory and learning functions. Now marijuana is legalized and easily accessible in their own homes.

Thinking that marijuana will replace other
addictive substances is plain ignorance.
A study from the National Epidemiological Study of Alcohol Use and Related Disorders found that marijuana use is also linked to other substance abuse.Studys reveal that adults who use marijuana are more likely to develop an “alcohol abuse disorder.”
If an adult already abused alcohol before smoking marijuana, they were at greater risk of their alcohol disorder deteriorating further.

What most people call freedom today is really slavery. (2 Peter 2:19; ). God says if you are overcome by something, then you are its slave!
The bible tells us to be sober.
Smoking marijuana is not being sober.
Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded.
Titus 1:8, Titus 2:2, 1 Peter 5:8, 1 Peter 4:7,
1 Thessalonians 5:8, 1 Timothy 3:2, 1 Peter 1:13
Titus 2:6, 1 Thessalonians 5:6, 1 Timothy 3:11
A lot of guesstimation going on,
with no bible verses to allude to.
The one tree was the TREE OF LIFE,
the other the TREE OF DEATH.
One is the way of GOD; the other is
the way of SATAN.” It’s that simple!
The tree of life symbolized the way of God,
the law of God, the knowledge of God.
If Adam had eaten from that tree, mankind
could have thrived on the fruits produced by
the tree of life; he would have been given
access to the Spirit of God, and developed
the mind of God. Peace, abundance, joy and
stability could have encompassed the Earth.
The tree of the knowledge of good and evil,
was the tree of Satan—by eating the fruits
created by the spirit of Satan, a spirit of envy,
vanity, self-centered lust that results in sickness,
violence, jealous rage and, ultimately, death.

"The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life;
and he that winneth souls is wise."
God says to choice between life and death.
By there fruits you will know them.
Blessed are they that do his commandments,
that they may have right to the tree of life,
and may enter in through the gates into the city.
