Re: Save your teens from marihuana!

So, you think it's OK to be falling down drunk if you're homeless, but not if you have a roof over your head? That doesn't make any sense at all.

here you go: http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/Hea...15111596?f=rss

i am not torturing anyone. i did not mention homeless people to start with. i have nothing against them. i actually help them when i can.

irrespective of how many people smoke weed, there are 75000 times more deaths in one year caused by drinking than the entire history of weed.

michele, those stats are so wrong. Are you aware, if a drunk driver is sitting in his car and a sober driver hits him and dies, that is counted as a drunk driver death? More than half of your count is based on this sort of bad data. As I said earlier, no one admits to being stoned, so how can you possibly know the numbers. michele, you are making yourself look mighty silly and stupid. Think.

considering all i see on this site is hatred abuse and people twisting ithers words i think it you all to be a bit on the slow side.

you all need to look around you. not justin the bible. the bible offers advice as to how to live life. it is not definate.

does no one realise the bible was written nearly 2000 years ago and that things have changed since then? it doesnt appear so.

Oh and Mrs rogers. before you start giving me thses stupid points. how about you give (for example) james some points. he has (in other threads) insulted my family and my country. yet i see nothing against him.

odd isnt it. an outsider is always wrong. an insider is always right.....

Re: Save your teens from marihuana!

Perhaps we should gather as much marihuana as possible, and hold a public burning to dispose of it. Without the marihuana around, our children will be less likely to be lured in by Satan.

That's a great idea Jacob. I'll bake a bunch of pies for thr burning. We're going to need them.

That is not a very nice thing to say. But thank you nevertheless for sharing your honest opinion on this with us.

We think the Holy Bible is more than just a guideline. But you probably already figured that out.

does no one realise the bible was written nearly 2000 years ago and that things have changed since then? it doesnt appear so

Well the version we use is from 1611, but I understand why you are saying this. God is a smart fellow, one of his rules is that we should follow secular law so we automatically adapt to new developments in society and laws.

odd isnt it. an outsider is always wrong. an insider is always right.....

That depends on point of view. For me, you are the outsider, for you I am the outsider. We have a lot of discussions on this forum so there are many things we have seen before. But we are always interested in what someone new, like you, can bring to the table.

So in the same sentence where you're accusing well-meaning Christians of being hateful, you insult our intelligence? You don't find that hateful? Not even a bit? Maybe you see everything as hateful because YOU are hateful?

does no one realise the Bible was written nearly 2000 years ago and that things have changed since then?

Are you saying God changed? God does not change.

Are you saying that if you dropped an apple 2000 years ago, it would fall faster or slower than now? No, of course not. Again: God does no change.

Same rules, different time period.

marijuana noun


a usually illegal drug made from the dried leaves and flowers of the hemp plant, which produces a feeling of pleasant relaxation if smoked or eaten









(Definition of marijuana noun from the Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary)

Re: Save your teens from marihuana!

Now michele, I noticed you are using the "Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary". That is a little child's dictionary. Everyone knows it is spelled 'Marihuana"

Exactly! Why would there be a "J" in it? It's marihuana, not mari-joo-ana...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marijuana_(etymology)

Now that we have the English spelling of 'Marijuana' ironed out, allow us to continue on topic and not slip from our discussion like a 'pot-head' or 'drunkard', for we know that it is Satan who conspires to derail our conversation and lead us towards evil.

Now miss michele, you know perfectly well, the number of drug related deaths is much higher than the 2 a year you quote.

I absoloutely agree with James here, the number of 'drug' related deaths a year is freightening - including tobbacco, alchol and any other ampetamine use. However, surely if we are to generalise the account of these drug realted deaths, we would not be doing justice to the eyes that God gave us? Therefore is it not wrong for us to generalise even the deaths of the unsaved drug user? Is it facts we seek or opinnion and belief? Surely facts if we are to have any grounding in our society or we will be nothing more than a 'drunkard' or 'pot-head' talking nonsene.

Although, even one a year is too many. How many drunk driving crashes was the driver also stoned? How many people will admit to being on drugs? None, who wants to add legal charges? How many afgani tali-ban nutcases are stoned out of their gourds? You know your statistic make you look very foolish.

I am not aware of the statistics for drunk driving cases involving other illicit substances James. Although here are the statistics for drunk driving in the US (as you can see the number of deaths is overwhelming);

http://www.alcoholalert.com/drunk-driving-statistics.html

Here are the stiatsics for cannabis related deaths in the US (dot point 10);

http://drugwarfacts.org/cms/?q=node/30#marijuana

"An exhaustive search of the literature finds no credible reports of deaths induced by marijuana. The US Drug Abuse Warning Network (DAWN) records instances of drug mentions in medical examiners' reports, and though marijuana is mentioned, it is usually in combination with alcohol or other drugs. Marijuana alone has not been shown to cause an overdose death."

However, one must look at the facts: alcohol is a legal drug in many countries around the world, while the legality of marijuana is difficult to define, even in the state of California where Federal law overides State law. Therefore, if our politicians, presidents and law enforcement officers are doing their jobs of keeping the streets clean of 'marijuana' then we should be able to speak with certantity that the majority of drink driving cases are exactly that, drink driving cases. I feel now that my staistics speak for themself.

Re: Save your teens from marihuana!

So just because a scientists says it is true, you believe it? Why do you not use your own God given brain instead? The part you didn't destroy yet. Most scientists make up proof to steal our money with government grants. Don't believe me? Perhaps you will believe the Times: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/new...cle6999975.ece

while the legality of marijuana is difficult to define

The fact that our liberal government made a mess out of their laws does not change the fact drugs are very bad for people.

And I don't know if you are aware of this but the strength of today's marijuana is as much as ten times greater than the marijuana used in the early 1970s. Even if, at some point in time, it didn't do all that much damage. It most certainly does so now.

[James Hutchins]

Re: Save your teens from marihuana!

Defense, it is obvious you are a druggie. You know when incidents occur, the authorities do not always test for drugs nor is being under the influence of them readily apparent as some people are just stupid. Therefore, may deaths are attributed to other things when in fact drugs do play a role. You attempt to defer the gentle reader away from reality by mentioning the medical examiner. They examine the corpse, not the attacker. There is a difference, you know. The attacker gets to walk away.

And referring to Wiki for a definition and spelling? That is like asking Dr. Kevorkian to heal you.

I feel now that my staistics speak for themself.

Pretty much does sum it up.
