Weed and Jesus

[jbran555]

well who smokes cannabis here? I think it has very many medical uses and can be a relaxing good and beneficial thing, especially if smoked through a vaporizer, because there are no harmful health effects that way. Does anyone out there smoke weed and still worship and glorify Christ? I think it can be done. I think I can smoke weed 2-3 times a week and still live a life like Christ.

Discuss.

The problem with weed is that it is still illegal. If you purchase weed from a dealer you are supporting an illegal drug trade that so many people can be negatively affected by. Now if you grow your own, I guess that is a different story but I know people that are cronic smokers and it does affect their drive and ambititon. It also decreases sperm count and causes erectile disfunction. I'm not saying it is bad but I dont think a person should drink 2-3 times a week because that starts verging on alcoholism.

It is better to be able to get peace from prayer and other sober things. I'm no holy roller either- take this advice from someone who has done prison time for marijuana cultivation. You cant be growing weed as a business and be living a true CHristian life. At least not at this time, it doesnt work. I can tell you I will never touch the stuff as long as I live. I dont think that it should necessisarily be illegal but I dont make the laws- I just have to live by them. Weed is no good- for real!!

well, i still think weed can have some beneficial uses. In Christianity, it is vital to learn and live by what is true. I think it can be true that smoking weed may further your like in a positive, spiritual way. And if I had to grow my own just for me, that is fine.

I don't know. I dont think it is any worse than alcohol and actually think alcohol is much worse but I dont think that having a beer here or there is necessarily wrong but I dont think that it can benefit you in any spiritual positive way.

The way I have ever felt drunk or high, while it may have felt great, it wasnt true emotion and feeling. It was an intoxicated emotion or feeling. I am just over all of that. I want sober reality, the REAL truth. I experimented with alot of different drugs while I was in college besides weed and i just discovered that while it may feel great to be high- I'd be happier just knowing I'm happy as a sober person.

Hope this helps.
