How is it possible to increase THC in the plant, its not an additive its a byproduct, THC has not increased, if anything the processes used to determine how much is in a plant has gotten better. Therefor you were smoking marijuana which is just as potent.
MY BROTHER,
Your lack of understanding of the nature of a dangerous substance whose use you are advocating and supporting is truly scary. Whatever are you thinking?!
The THC in cannabis has increased over the years--from about 2 percent in the 60's to over 20 percent as we speak (which means weed smokes today get in 3 or 4 hits the same amount of THC as we in the 60's had to smoke a whole Cheech and Chong-sized joint to get)--by the development, by entrepreneurs, of more sophisticated growing techniques--tricks of the trade, if you will--such as increasing the hours of light received, spraying various chemicals on the buds as they are developing, focusing heat lamps on the buds as they are maturing, removing all male plants before pollination, etc. the Internet is full of websites providing instructions on producing more potent cannabis--
why in the world are you denying the easily verifiable obvious?
All i am saying is marijuana is not as bad as alcohol, not in terms of legality but in terms of effects, and therefor if one believes alcohol is polluting the body than they should also believe marijuana is as well, and vice versa.
What you are saying, whether you mean to or not, are aware of the message you are sending or not, is that cannabis is a safe high--with no negative consequences and which can be indulged in without risk and without sin. You are seriously wrong! and you will have to answer for all those who are led astray by your misguided and mistaken pronouncements on a subject of which you have no real knowledge or understanding. WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS? WHAT IS YOUR MOTIVATION. IF what you say were true i, and many other Christians who are recovering-by-the-grace-of-God-ex-stoners, would still be smokin.
The truth is that weed pollutes the body much more than does alcohol. Alcohol, being a water soluble drug, is eliminated from the body very quickly--at the rate of about 1/2 ounce of pure alcohol (the equivalent of 1 drink) per hour. The THC in cannabis, however, being a fat soluble substance, is eliminated very slowly, and the THC in one joint can remain in the body for a week or more, many people losing their jobs for positive blood tests at work for week they smoked up to 10 days or more before.
Incidentally, the brain being over 2/3 fat, the THC which is absorbed into the brain continues to affect thinking and behavior long after the smoker is down from their high.
Again, ANYTIME YOU
RECREATIONALLY USE A SUBSTANCE TO
INTENTIONALLY ALTER YOUR MENTAL, EMOTIONAL, OR SPIRITUAL FUNCTIONING, YOU COMMIT A SIN BY POLLUTING THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT--which we, as Christians, have become. In addition, because of the nature of the high, you are opening your mind and allowing the evil one to insert ungodly ideas and concepts into your consciousness which will lead to further sins.
A few hours of drug-induced euphoria is simply not worth an eternity of regrets.
My sister,
PLEASE be aware of the effects of your words on others--you will have to answer for them, in time, to your Lord:
"And I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned." [Matthew 12:36-37 (ASV)]
ABBA'S FOOL,
ephraim
Lord, I lift up those who would be caught up in the zealousness of your word and mistakenly judge those who are not sinning. Please open their eyes to see the freedom and truth that you died to bring them. I pray that these conservative Christians who probably mean well would see the light of your Word and truth that marijuana is no more a sin than alcohol, which you yourself partook in.
ephraimanesti,
