Medical Marijuana – Simply information

Big Al
April 21, 2014

This is definitely a growing (pardon the pun) industry. With the changes in the laws both here in the United States and in Canada, there is a demand for the product. Marijuana is utilized effectively in the medical community and recreational use of marijuana has been around for a long time among a growing percentage of what I would define as “mainstream society”. 

Do we endorse recreational use of marijuana?  As long as its use conforms with all laws, who are we to judge?

What do you think?

      Jerry,

      I did not make the title clear. See the new one.

      Certainly not trying to be offensive here and certainly not promoting this industry.

        Apr 21, 2014 21:22 AM

        Al……….thanks for the reply, ….I know you were not promoting, ……But, I know you are a Christian……and as a Brother, we are to inform, if , need be, and as they say, IRON SHARPING IRON……and we know there are weak brothers who profess, but, actions could confused. There are many who, are weak, and still need to learn.
        If society wants to fall for the devil’s tricks, we are to warn the brothers, not to be entrapped…….if , we feel they need some information………For the devil stalks around seeking whom he can devour……….We are to have a clear head , and avoid any pit falls, of which others might be weak in, we should inform.

    Lets face it governments all around the world are over turning rocks looking for TAX $$$….legalize pot will bring in a huge amount of tax…I’m all for it…..when was the last time you read where a stoned husband beat his wife?….booze has destroyed more families than pot that’s for sure, unless a fight breaks out on the sofa looking for munchies.

      Apr 21, 2014 21:26 AM

      Very good point “Original”

      Apr 21, 2014 21:29 AM

      It will not make any difference how much tax revenue the govt. gets……..they will not be able to spend wisely…………..which is already proven……………..
      The govt. is broke, and is ruled by a group of thugs, not much better than the Mafia
      which………….is in to DRUG.,GAMBLING, STEALING…….AND KILLING……….

    I don’t know about investing in pot growing companies.
    Nice to see it finally legalising, enough of innocent people going to jail and making drug cartels and gangs rich.
    Always bothered me that growers made so much money and never paid tax tho.
    Ive known many for maybe 50 years.
    Have always thought they provided a service at risk to themselves.
    Not growing hemp has always been a big deception by our governments, total crime if you ask me. I remember watching government adds against pot, we would watch them and it would prove to many people that our government was crooked, liers or truly stupid.

    Anyway, finaly getting legal and we can now start producing renewable products for more applications than I can list. medical, energy and otherwise.

    One other thing, pot, is easily more liquid than pretty much anything else, if we ever got to a “mad max” scenario, having pot to barter would be a necessity.

    I think it is a mistake to mix religious superstition with medical findings and economic potential, just saying.

    and then there is the superstition that marijuana has any medical benefits. Just saying some dd should be done (from both sides) of the issue – not just listening to the bandwagoners.

    Sure, most laws limiting freedom are justified as protecting the children.

    Apr 21, 2014 21:31 PM

    You guys are like the prohibition advocates in the 1920’s keep MMJ illegal and the gangsters will love you and laugh at your stupidity. DT

      Apr 22, 2014 22:39 AM

      Hello DT.
      Prohibition, only subdued the crowd. Legalizing and taxing a problem only justifies bad behavior. To bring light to a problem , which is seen as a problem, does not change the problem which it is causing. Legalization of alcohol and cigarettes, raises tax revenue ,but, at the same time it condones and allows the weak minds to seek help and free medical advice,,,,,therefore, a net loss to society,and additional cost for treatment and rehabilitation……..all the while , telling our youth, it is ok for adults,but not for kids……Kids see what immature adults do, and copy and want to be adults…..
      We have fallen as a society, and will continue falling ,because that is what society wants, We will continue to have politicians play to the weak and immoral activies which will ultimately finish off a once……GOD LOVING NATION…………

        Apr 22, 2014 22:13 PM

        Jerry,

        I do agree with you for the most part.

        I have always said the you cannot legislate morals. I still believe that to be the case.

        This Christian knows a bit about the Bible and I am definitely on the side of and support (as you can see from this site and my commentary) high moral values.

        I have to bring out the fact; however, that my and I assume your God did give each of us free will. There has to be a reason for that.

          Apr 22, 2014 22:47 PM

          Al………
          Free will…..is accepting and not accepting Jesus Christ as your savior
          that does not give anyone license to do wrong. Read the Gal. 5

            Apr 22, 2014 22:06 PM

            Okay

            Just finished our weekly Bible Study. Would suggest it for everyone.

    It’s very interesting how some people project their paranoid religious views onto others creating a divide. Some people use religion to justify their violence towards others. Religion is a great “conquer and divide” system of thought, where you can legally demonise someone because you do not agree with them. You can even ruin someones business because one’s professed religion does not agree with the business model. Religion =Lynch Mob. And you do not need to be smart to be in a lynch mob, just a willing participant prone to violence.

    Christianity came out of a great depression in Rome. Jesus Christ did not teach Christianity! Christianity is a label applied quite later, after it was convenient politically (remember Christianity was a persecuted cult before it was accepted into the mainstream).

    Bottom line is let info be info and stop putting restrictions on information. Although I personally support others viewpoint (I try at least), peoples view point from a cult perspective is not scientific and will harm everyone .

    I support freedom in all of it’s attributes

      Apr 22, 2014 22:16 PM

      I am with you “just saying”

      Apr 22, 2014 22:45 PM

      Acts 11:26….And the disciples were called CHRISTIANS first in Antioch
      THis refutes you “applied quite later” comment….

        Apr 22, 2014 22:47 PM

        Your comments of persecution is correct,,,only they were not a cult……sorry

          bb
          Apr 22, 2014 22:51 PM

          cult noun, often attributive \ˈkəlt\

          : a small religious group that is not part of a larger and more accepted religion and that has beliefs regarded by many people as extreme or dangerous

          ootb, according to Merriam Webster, just sayin is correct, before Christianity went “mainstream” it was a cult.

          Gotta remember, there was a time that Zues,Apollo,Mithra,Oden etc were “gospel truth”
          If it wasnt “gospel” it was just truth, but you got my point.

    I read a poll was taken in Britain a few months back.
    It determined there is an ever increasing number of people that consider themselves “spiritual” as opposed to Christian.
    I believe people are understanding there is a difference between what Jesus talked about and Christianity.

      Apr 22, 2014 22:44 PM

      I have heard that bb.
