@IHavAUTubeSadly It actually doesn't. Patent number 6630507, as represented by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, states that the cannabinoids that get you high are antioxidants and neuroprotectants. The American Journal of Addiction 2005 presents a study that failed to find hippocampal changes in long term users. The European Journal of Neuroscience 2007 shows that CBD(chemical compound in marijuana that gives ya a buzz) reduced striatal atrophy caused by 3-nitropropionic acid.
it's not the use but the ABUSE OF IT! Marijuana is the 'Gateway' drug to the worse drugs like cocaine, heroin etc. Now I'll tell ya Drug Abuse is bad and addictive and it not only affects the person who does it but the family and loved ones as well. However, some will argue that for medical reasons for terminally ill patients it helps ease their pain....apparently everyone will have an opinion on this matter. God Bless
@Megsgirl247 Cheeseburgers can be abused too. Also, marijuana is not a gateway drug. We've proven that marijuana is not a gateway drug. *National Survey on Drug Use and Health 2009, sponsored by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administrations:"There are 21.8 million illicit drug users in the USA, and 16.7 million of those users are pot users. The other 5.1 million are cocaine users, ecstasy users, etc."
The numbers would be more balanced if pot were a gateway drug :)
In Canada we joke that everyone smokes pot, they just don't talk about it. In fact, a lot of people do, from all walks of life. I know a lot of very successful people who smoke it recreationally & it doesn't interfere with their lives. MJ is like any other mood altering substance. If you use it with intelligence & moderation, it can be fun and even beneficial. Used excessively, it may sap your motivation, depress you or interfere with other aspects of you life.
Thanks for your reply, I didn't vote for Pat, I don't hang with his crowd.
Still, I have been praying for many years that the truth about marijuana laws would be made manifest, be made know.
Around here, he is so popular, WSMV-4 Nashville has the 700 Club on right after NBC Today...and they WILL pay attention!
The interdiction crowd is running out of excuses...I'm not promoting using drugs, but I'm tired of people parading around acting like hero's, whilst the drug culture continues.
Yes, he said that & looked directly into the camera because he believes what he says!
I would leave-off mocking a man of God...if you don't agree with him O.K, but don't shoot the messenger.
God must be tired of the mess our government has made over a simple plant created for man's use. The Bible said God looked on all that He made & said "It is good...."
That means there are thousands of uses for this plant...
Interdiction is all about money. $B's are wasted on piss-testing...
@Backyard76 It's hard to believe that Pat Robertson is truly a messenger of God when he has so often lied. He said God told him there would be mass killings from a terrorist attack on the US in 2007, and that oil would reach $300/gallon in '09. In 1976, he said that the world would end in 1982.
All the preceding statements were false, as a matter of fact, not opinion, so, at best, he's a false prophet. It's hard to see anything wrong with mocking a false prophet.
@FAILocracy I like the middle-of-the-road stance you took on being accused of mocking a "man of God." I agree with you--he definately seems like a false prophet.
Btw...Robertson isn't advocating for pot. He just realizes how asanine these Cannabis laws are. It's time to wake up. The Insitute of Medicine has declared that there is no scientific evidence supporting the gateway theory. I know of a guy that has smoked it for 30 years, and has zero desire to try narcotics. According to the Henningfield ratings ranked after Dr. Jack E. Henningfield of the National Institute on Drug Abuse, marijuana isn't as addicting compared to alcohol and nicotine.
@zekdom Yeah, I totally agree. He did say, "I'm not exactly for the use of drugs." (I didn't play the whole clip because I try to keep my videos short as possible, and I doubted people would get the wrong idea in thinking he actually smokes it.) I too, was pro-legalization for years before I ever tried marijuana, and I only tried it a couple times and figured it wasn't for me, but there's still no excuse to continue ruining peoples' lives over the drug war!
@FAILocracy I agree with you. I actually haven't smoked it myself(yet), but I know a lot of people that do. The reason I started research on all aspects(most of them) on marijuana is that what the DEA says about marijuana...I can't prove that on the people that I know. I only know two people that fit the criteria as "stoned slackers". I know many more that are average, and I know two guys with I.Q.'s of a genius level that I'm close too. They arn't idiots.
You doctored this video. Pat Robertson saying something that's not absolutely stupid? That never happened!
Years ago, mediocre TV host Arthur Godfrey did an anti-pot commercial in which he stated that pot, "hurts their chromosomes." He was totally uncomfortable with the word "chromosomes." And, how can heal the "hurt?" Band aid? Neosporin?
Auto-fellatio while driving only works if you've got a steering wheel with a large diameter. Even then, it's hard to use the cell phone at the same time.
@polemius01 hahahahaha! "Even then, it's hard to use a cell phone at the same time." Plus, if you get pulled over while doing it in California, you can say, "But officer, I was following the hands-free law!"
I wanna get high with Pat Robertson, and then we can talk about those murderous, lesbian witches! ROTFL Wow you know the end of the world is coming is Pat wants to legalize pot!!!
other things that will screw with your driving, anger, sleepiness, kids, backseat drivers, vloging, bloging, jacking off, yelling at people, blindfolds, headbanging, closing your eyes and going lalalalallalalalalalala, dancing, sleeping, eating, doing your dishes, deep frying things, going to the movies, having sex, giving birth, operating, solving a rubix cube, getting married, eating a 7 course meal and much much more, i like to see they also turn illegal for screwing with your driving
@FAILocracy well if pot is illegal for driving so should all of these things be, sleeping behind the wheel will result in more death then pot will, and i like to see someone getting married while driving, i guess you can dance and not be to distracted but ballroom dancing i like to see that too
@FAILocracy And I'm speaking as a person from an evangelical background to: but the man does have a point. They allow drinking and smoking, things much more harmful than pot, and the issue of smoking pot and driving can be applied to the drinking of alcohol and driving--wait, don't we have that application already? THINK America! I believe I have finished preaching my sermon now.

You know what else impairs driving?
1. Reading a bible while driving.
2. Painting a water-colored version of the Mona Lisa while driving.
3. Folding your freshly dried clothes while driving.
Do we outlaw these things because they could possibly impair a person ability to safely operate a motor vehicle? No.
