Ok, everyone i know who uses it are kinda dumb and stupid and hang on the couch alot... not that i'm judging ;-P Perhaps its just a coincidence that everyone i know who does it lack get up and go. I used to think pot is ok for medicinal uses like cancer but then my uncle told me the Lord revealled to him the demon attached to marijuana & I'd say I'd avoid it. For me, I tried it as a teen and it just made me paranoid. We are to respect the law too and also keep in mind that we are representitives of the Lord... the things we do, whether it is drinking to excess, swearing, smoking pot... people see this and i think it blocks them from seeing the light of the Lord shine from within.

I understand. There is a parable about a man who was hiring someone to drive his children to school. He took all three out to a road with a steep dropoff and asked the three candidates whether they could navigate the road safely. The first said that he could even ride along the edge of the dropoff and maintain control. The second, trying to outdo the first, said that he could hang the edge of the tire over the dropoff and still maintain control. The final one said that he might not get the job because he was going to stay as far away from the edge as possible. Of course, the third got the job. Parents are like that, so I hope that you will understand why your parents opposed it and I hope that you will navigate the dropoffs of life safely. God Bless.
AMEN!!! reading more of the posts here I'm seeing where there is a lack of acknowledgement that this is an addictive mind altering substance. I've done it & I know so dont try to tell me that its not. & yes the teens I know who are doing it & adults I know who are now chronic users are people who had alot of garbage to escape from & rather than work their way out of their problems they smoke & lose themselves in their video games... tv...music... this way they dont have to actually look at their problems and deal with them, they can just avoid them & giggle & maybe have a snack or 8. Also note I've seen a pattern with my friends from school in the 80's they were occasional users, in the 90's they became chronic and now many of them have lost most everything to their addictions of other substance. There but by the grace of God go I. Also, note that alot of the stuff you get out there isn't always just pot. For your own safety I would not recommend smoking this stuff. Plus you want to be a successful human being and that stuff will eat your brain & your spare cash.

Funny how people conceive ideas about what other people do....like you are in the presence or see someone swearing/blaspheming or acting in a normal unbelievers way, what normally happens?...NOTHING, people either ignore the person/s or walk away, now the thing with someone who smokes a bit of pot, he/she is automatically slotted into society's box of criminal low life and branded a drug addict..hypocrites!..all of us!
