Why do you have such a problem with mind-expanding recreational drug use. Surely if you're going to take drugs, you may as well get something good out of it.
What the
WHAT good?!? I suppose if you had family and friends die of mind expanding drugs then maybe you would understand differently. If you had family and friends that now somewhat resemble vegetables your opinion may not be as it is. Yet I suppose that anyone who so forwardly supports drug use most likely uses them and their hearts are probably hardened concerning this and they do not know it. They have brought spiritual darkness to their hearts.
God hates these drugs and as children of God we should openly shun drug use of this kind. There wont be any of these recreational drug users going to heaven. The use of these drugs will only bring the judgments of God down upon them. The only thing good as you put it is in fact not good but death and destruction if they do not repent now.

sorcery. 24And in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been slain on earth."

(NAS)Galatians 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are plain: fornication, impurity, licentiousness, 20idolatry,
sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger, selfishness, dissension, party spirit, 21envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
