The clever headlines are out there - "Canada Goes to Pot", but the rest of us know that a population that would elect soy boy Justin Trudeau, or export the likes of Justin Bieber was already lost to Jesus. "Legalizing" pot is just one more step on the trip to the Lake of Fire - just like "legalizing" sodomy and fornication.

As you would expect, the LIEberal MSM is positively ecstatic with the promise of a pot-driven economic boom - and it can all be taxed to prop up their ailing socialist economy. With the exception of the quebecois French, the rest of the population is already attempting to speak a variation of American with the use of "eh" spattered about. Lord knows what they will begin to sound like after the entire population is doused on weed.

Eventually the entire country will produce a weed zombie apocalypse, and with everyone blissed out no one will be left to do any work. Look for starving, emaciated and disease ridden residents crossing our borders attempting to escape their squalor looking to spend their worthless Canadian dollars on such mundane things as food and shelter.

I'd say it's a little late for prayer - time to start planning the border wall.

Those crazy canooks are asking for war as my Pa said a long time ago. I was reading about one of Trump's gook friends Doodootee that was killing off drug users and drug dealers. Perhaps it's time Trump called him up to help out with God's work against Canada.

That didn't take long. It would appear Beavis and Butthead have become the glorified Kardashians of Canada. We need to Build That Northern Wall! And make the Canadians pay for it!

I've always enjoyed visiting Canada. Mostly in touch with the older generation there but can vouch for their superb quite good cake recipes. Especially lemon meringue flans and well nutted fruit cakes. Certainly better than those English weird candy bars you've never heard of deep fried in batter (you read that correctly) served with "mushy peas" and a pickled onion. I say pickled onion but it's more like an eyeball soaked with industrial solvents.

Now, even when taking Christmas presents to the retirement village, I'd better watch out. Lemon flan with Moroccan "honey" oil? Slobbered all over with whipped cream who'd notice the difference? And once you've infused the fruit cake with brandy, port & sherry would you notice lumps of Himalayan resin? No. You wouldn't. And what exactly is in that teapot?

Now I do maintain contact with my Canadian friends, chatting by 'phone now and then. And from what I've heard the antics are not the sort of thing I'd want to hear coming out of my radio!

Unfortunately it's probably best to add this to my list of countries beginning with "The Former" or containing the word "Democratic" - oh yes, or "The People's" - which is sad. Once we shared a King.

Well that is just a riveting testimony, I tell you! Perhaps, if you have time that is, you'd bless us with a tale to share how Jesus led you to this opinion.

Indeed. All substances which may be harmful to people should be banned and totally eradicated. Not only street drugs but also legally prescribed opioids. And alcohol. And tobacco in all forms, including that vaping fad. And of course the most addicting (arguably, the most harmful) of them all: sugar.

[MitzaLizalor]

If everyone accepted Christ there would be no need for prescribed medications of any type. The weed is a good example. Even by secularist standards such as the ebola or the herpes or the simian foamy virus according to God's Plan would Eve ever have come into contact with the marijuhana? Would human circumstances ever have brought us in contact with such wicked viruses? Even if. the little horrors existed at all? Which I do not accept?

No.

She would not. We know that similar nasties like toxic brambles, rose thorns, thistles, many of which cause infections if not treated and sometimes requiring amputations should the gangrene set in, did not exist. There was no need for psychiatrists, no requirement to pipe novel sound waves into the temporal lobes to pacify psychotic episodes many of which are associated with the ganja. No unwanted action potentials messing things up in the 90- to 100-millisecond range. No screeching burglar alarms. And no medicine.

THE BIBLE
Genesis 3:17c-18a Cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee

I Samuel 16:23 And it came to pass, when the evil spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp, and played with his hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.

Exodus 23:25 Ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.

Jeremiah 30:17a I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD

James 5:14-15 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

I'm having trouble finding your introduction post.
Perhaps you could include more information than that you're Canadian?
A couple of points you could address are 1) how does the word "faith" derive from God's existence? For those who know He exists faith is unnecessary. Even in cases where God does not exist, in the minds of savages for instance, the savages still have faith in devils. Are you saying that faith in God is transmitted to as yet undiscovered cannibal tribes by way of devils who prevent them from knowing God so they eat one another anyway?

James 2:18-19 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.

2) The Bible explains that once people accept Jesus they stop sinning. More than just stop. It becomes impossible to sin. Now say you were getting your standards from Nicki Minaj

it's possible that you'd confuse an infinite amount. of forgiveness with an infinite frequency. of forgiveness. Christ died once, which was sufficient to pay the price for any and all transgressions of those who accept Him. That's the quantity of forgiveness. But we can read for ourselves what God has explained about repeated forgiveness, not just 50 times an hour but over and over again.

Hebrews 6:4-6a; 10:26-27a It is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, and have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, if they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance.….for if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation

Those are a couple of points you could use in your intro.
