That would also be easy to test. Feed the questionable substance to some of the many who don’t know the difference between good and evil and see if they gain that knowledge.

Surely someone would have found it by accident by now, especially with the folks thinking they’re supposed to experiment with everything at least once.

We’re talking about whatever we’re talking about. My intellectual superior was claiming the Bible instructs us to eat marijuana. I disagree that it is saying that, but it turns out I was using the “wrong” translation. My bad.

As to whether or not it is good for what ails you, that’s a separate question. If it were legal, it would be a more consistent product and its effects would be easier to judge. Making it legal would take getting our president to break the treaty outlawing it which President Nixon pushed through, but that should be no problem. When asked if he ever used it he replied, “Yes I did and I DID inhale; I thought that was the point.”

You gotta give him points for honesty and flexibility. Maybe he will honestly declare the treaty void rather than just ignoring it while it continues to fund killers south of the border–and some north of the border as well. If legal, the price would likely be comparable to that of a bale of hay.

Your doctor should be allowed to prescribe whatever he or she thinks would be best for your health and if the prescription turns out to be wrong— well, that’s why there are so many lawyers ready to sue at the drop of a hat.

David for well paid lawyers

You and I will have to disagree about Cannabis being “intoxicating”, I do not corelate being “High” with being intoxicated….in my 66 years I have been both a few times, I think they are very different. As far as the safety of Cannabis goes, I will call it safe, I don’t know what the exact LD50 is , but when you compare it to all other substances it IS much safer. If you want to believe it is not safe, that is up to you, don’t use it then.
I agree that there is a lot that we don’t know about Cannabis, you can thank your government for that intolerable situation, as they control the research that gets done,or more precisely does NOT get done, here in America.

3,000 years vs. 9,000 years, I won’t quibble over a mere 6,000 years.Fact is that human use of Cannabis has been going on for a Long time, even in the US. it was legal until 1937 and it was in the American Medical Pharmacoepia until 1940.

MARY; Can we put you in the “for Legalization” column ?

It’s time for Floridians to wake up and smell the cannabis.

We allow our sick citizens to take synthetic pharmaceuticals that are constantly being recalled due to causing heart attacks, strokes, etc. etc. but continue to look down upon the natural God given cannabis plant which has to date, in the entire history of mankind caused 0, count them 0 deaths.

Just want to state that there have been atleast 4 recorded deaths involving Marijuana…The only thing is it is hard to prove whether they died after very recently taking marijuana or if it had been days since there is no way to know when the marijuana was inhaled/ingested by the drug tests. Only way to know is by the person telling you(in this case he/she cant really talk) or an eye witness.

But when compared to Alcohol/tobacco/other drugs I’d definitely say this is the least deadly.
