Open your eyes even more and see what really needs to be done to restore our country's health:

I was originally thinking of calling this movie Revelation 3:9, or perhaps Matthew 23:13. :-)

I am serious, let your elected officials know these illegal laws are causing untold destruction in our society, costing us hundreds upon hundreds of billions of dollars, and have put 20+ million unfairly in jail.

LET MY PEOPLE GO!

first of all,people who never used cannabis should keep their mouths shut,just for the simple fact you sound idiotic,another thing also ,to the people who think they know religion;answer this;are you a Christian? if you said yes to that question, you are one of the blind,Christ said go out and make disciples "The word christian is a derogatory term for DISCIPLES,NOW GO LOOK UP THE MISSED PRONOUNCED WORD CALUMUS found in the BIBLE, its CANNABIS ,one of the ingredients found in healing oils.

@ecapone333 Yes, my brother took great pleasure in informing me I was a Cretin. But don’t overlook the fact we are to carry our cross; one of the best ways to take the shame out of a thing is to show there is no shame in it, or to despise the shame others insinuate. The Jews were forced to wear yellow stars by the Nazis to humiliate them. Now Jews wear yellow stars as a sign of pride of overcoming persecution and murderous evil.

I believe Marijuana is a gift from God. Satan hates Marijuana and is trying to undermine its blessings by spreading lies!

The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and "sinners."' But wisdom is proved right by her actions." (Matthew 11:19)

@Enoch2 This has been debunked over and over, just google "The Ol' Pharmakeia Situation."

What will you do when Muslims become the majority and begin forcing their religion into U.S. law? Not only that, if you read any of the other comments you'll see many Christians do not blaspheme God for having made this plant.

Clearly it is unconstitutional to force religion into our laws and Prohibition has only cause gross and very expensive harms to befall us all.

H.Con.Res.13: Reaffirming "In God We Trust" as the official motto of the United States and supporting and encouraging the public display of the national motto in all public buildings, public schools, and other government institutions.

Aye 396

Nay 9

OK so Congress voted 396-9 that our National Motto is "In God We Trust" ... Genesis 1:29 is a quote of God. Do we trust god yet??

[Enoch2]

@Enoch2 Actually, allow me to amend that. I don't really think a saved person will continue to smoke pot--I know we're not saved by being sinless but through faith in Jesus Christ and His death on the cross for our sins, His burial, and His Resurrection the third day.

However, after a person is saved, the Holy Spirit resides in them and I do not believe they can continue to smoke drugs, incl. pot, without being chastised by God.

2 Cor 13:5, Heb 12:3-10.

[Enoch2]

@NewOldSalt I'll send you a good short essay on this subject. I used to think as you do about the "sweet cane" of Isaiah 43:24 & Jer 6:20 but it is an offering to God not something for the priests to smoke to get high.

As for the OT prophets, they didn't reject God's Law, they called the people to repent and turn BACK to God!

REV 21:8 says that sorcerers will go into the lake of fire. The word for sorcerer is PHARMAKEUS, one who uses drugs, potions, spells, enchantments; a poisoner.

[Enoch2]

@NewOldSalt Nah, I didn't have any hang-ups. I smoked as much as I wanted to. But when I got saved, the Lord made it clear that it's a sin. Now I'm sharing that with others. I'll tell you, I know a person can be saved and still smoke pot--but it will affect your Christian life and you will lose rewards because when a person is stoned they are walking after the flesh, not the Spirit. The kind of 'spirituality' associated with drugs is not real spirituality, it's carnal.

[NewOldSalt]

@korzon You are right in saying Evil Greed is very close to the heart of it. Far too many people have a gross and constitution-crushing blood lust, just look up “Civil Asset Forfeiture” in Google. Then there are the sickos who get money AND their adrenaline-fueld jollies by kicking in doors and shooting people. There are also the pawns, the Deceived. I.e. the blind following the blind.

[korzon]

@NewOldSalt Well we have to use our heads and know when enough is enough thats a given,But things shouldnt be forced apon either.We give ceazar whats do but if we see it having bad fruit then in gets in the way of what is due GOD.They get people hooked on other prescriptions I know that personaly and with this new healthcare bill who knows what will happen.You can grow pot that is why they dont want it the pharmicutical companies cant charge you then,It's about the money mostly it seems.

[NewOldSalt]

@Enoch2 Look, I’m sorry you could not control your use. But do you really think you have any God-given right to push your hang-ups on the whole world?

And not only that, but clearly you defied traditional Drug Warrior propaganda that you needed to be forced into mandatory punitive treatment. You overcame your weakness without that. In fact, most heroin, cocaine, meth, etc… users decide on their own to stop. It is a relative minority of users who have problematic use.
