Animists do not worship God. What they do is explicitly condemned AND PROHIBITED by God. Many animists consume the Durban Poison or the Thai Tripping Grass or even those halucinogenic insect grubs elephants seem to like. But that's not everything I discovered checking this out before posting. Wallabies on opium, reindeer on spotted toadstools, Canadian sheep, Viennese birds, Mexican bats, Amazonian cats, all on the stuff (whatever it's called) but though God provided all plants for food equally, some plants are more equal than others.
Exodus 30:22-29 Moreover the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Take thou also unto thee principal spices, of pure myrrh five hundred shekels, and of sweet cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and fifty shekels, and of sweet calamus [וקנה־בשם] two hundred and fifty shekels, and of cassia five hundred shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of oil olive an hin: and thou shalt make it an oil of holy ointment, an ointment compound after the art of the apothecary: it shall be an holy anointing oil. And thou shalt anoint the tabernacle of the congregation therewith, and the ark of the testimony, and the table and all his vessels, and the candlestick and his vessels, and the altar of incense, and the altar of burnt offering with all his vessels, and the laver and his foot. And thou shalt sanctify them, that they may be most holy: whatsoever toucheth them shall be holy.
John Paul II felt he had more in common with animists than many other groups but I doubt Mary worship is quite the same as ancestor worship either as practised in the Orient or in Africa with a thousand teeming spirits. Nothing associated with idols ever has anything to do with Christianity. The Bible makes this plain but for people rejecting The Bible, orgiastic toadstool cults, temple shenanigans, moon worship, new age gurus and whatever the latest hallucinogen may be are all par for the course. Nothing touching such a demented person (or contaminated object) becomes holy.
When it's suggested that cana-bosem (from the Hebrew) and cannabis are the same thing, the salient point is the "touching" bit. As far as I'm aware one does not get high by placing a lump of bhang on one's head. It needs to be consumed. Now perhaps it could be absorbed through the skin but that would require quite a lot and it would need to be applied vigorously for several hours. Otherwise it would just run off. For candlesticks et al., they're not going to absorb anything. Whatever was in the oil would run off; even if not, simply by touching the object so little oil would be transferred to the skin that we can be certain HOLY does NOT mean off one's onion on the GANJA and that just because something touched a piece of John Paul II, that doesn't become holy either.
These are not Biblical concepts and California needs to consider the difference between plants as ordained by God for human consumption on Creation Day Six and plants as they are now.
