Re: Save your teens from marihuana!

Now that we have the English spelling of 'Marijuana' ironed out

I'm pretty sure Marijuana is Spanish for "Mary Jane".

Re: Save your teens from marihuana!

Even science believers say marihuana is 50 to 70% more carcinogenic than tobacco¹. The chance of death by heart attack increases about six fold for people who use marihuana².
Tobacco causes approximately 440,000 deaths a year.
About 30% of the people in the US smoke, this is similar to lifetime use of marihuana, so marihuana is responsible for 750,000 to 2,500,000 deaths a year. Remember it took 400 years after tobacco was introduced before science finally accepted that it is a drug and it is seriously harmful. Just because scientists haven't yet admitted the dangers of marihuana doesn't mean they are nonexistent, it is simply hippies and drug cartels lobbying to keep the dangers under wraps.

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

That depends upon the method used; I would advise you to look at Poppers definition of science. If the method used fits within Poppers definition of Science, then I would feel fairly safe in saying that 'yes' I would believe it to be 'highly confirmed'. Remember we must attempt to falsify, rather than find our theory/method correct. You have to remember that science is not 'truth' it is 'highly confirmed'.

Here I bring in what I said earlier, and what Cranky Old Man just said.

So just because a scientists says it is true, you believe it?

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

I absolutely agree, this is where my personal opinion comes in; Why go after the lethargic pot smoker? Why not the crack dealers or the politicians themselves that make these ridiculous laws? Why go after the user? Why not go after the dealers?

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.

I concur with you here again, but once again I ask the question; why persecute the child? Why not the person who introduced it to the child, the dealers, the manufactures - the people who made today's marijuana ten times stronger?

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.

Pretty much does sum it up.

No, it's not obvious that I'm a 'druggie' - just because I don't agree with your opinion and beliefs you cast me out as a 'druggie'? Who are you to make such judgment - nobody is apart from God.
I did not mention the medical examiner, the source I quoted did - that would be plagiarism if I had.
In addition, can you please look at the findings again, marijuana is mentioned however in conjunction with our drugs. What I'm trying to point out, is that marijuana should not be our top priority, there are far more 'legal' drugs that are causing more harm than marijuana - 'legal' drugs that we believe are 'ok' because they are 'legal' - because conventional law says so. What if marijuana became legal and alcohol was to become illegal; Would the Landovians continue to have such a hard stance on marijuana 100 years latter and would their position on alcohol change? (please answere my question with a decent explanation was to why or why not, thank you)

In addition, I am aware that sourcing Wiki may not be extremely credible, although had this of been a university paper I may of cared a little more than I do. That isn't to be sarcastic, we just never agreed on any rules in our conversation regarding such sourcing - and now you pull such wild card out on me because it does not agree with your opinnion/belief. You are being unfair with me, I was not unfair with you James.

In conclusion my point so far has been that there are far worse drugs that are legal, we should have our prioritys in check, we should be worrying about the harmful legal drugs, we should be worrying about the lethal drugs such as speed, cocaine and heroin... not silly old and washed out marijuana for damn sakes!

Now wait. I thought Maria meant the same as Mary, but in Mexican.

Don't they even know how to spell their OWN words? Ever try to get a Mexican to spell anything? They say all the letters wrong!

'E' sounds like 'A', 'I' sounds like 'E', it's ridiculous!

It's no wonder now that I think about it, since they're all high on the marihuana all the time.

Re: Save your teens from marihuana!

Pastor Ezekiel has informed me of the rules of this forum, apologies to those who I may of offended. I did not attempt to push dope on the forum, I'm sorry if it came across like this and I advise any child that is on this forum to never touch ANY drugs - tobacco, alcohol, marijuana etc etc. - I just had faith that those who could make a change had their priority's right so we could take out the opium dealing Afghanistan and the corrupt politicians who spread evil through rhetoric!

I will no longer post here, however I will view this thread in the next coming days to see the responses.

Thanks for the responses so far and this has been an interesting experience and insightful discussion/debate, I hope no feelings were hurt and I will be on my way now.

Bye.

Please make a thread of your own in the "Introductions" section of the forum, so that we can properly greet you. Tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus.

And if you're here to flame us, better take a look at THIS before making an even bigger ass out of yourself.

All of those quotes speak of an herb or plant, but none of them specifically mention marihuana. Whoever made that website is scripture-twisting, or interpreting scripture to suit their own needs. Sure, God gave them the "tree of life", but it certainly wasn't marihuana. God wouldn't want His people to be dirty, marihuana-smoking hippies, now, would He?

Re: Save your teens from marihuana!

If your child continues to smoke marihuana, you will need to beat them, as it is possible that they are possessed by a demon that is causing their narcotic addiction.

Sorry to correct you Brother Jacob, but Marijuana is not a narcotic. The rest I agree with.

You are apparently unaware that the last 20 years marijuana has become stronger and stronger and that modern marijuana is most certainly a narcotic.

Bud, you should check your facts first.
