Cannabis / kaneh bosm

Dear Editor of The Chronicle,

Not only is it NORML to use cannabis (It's NORML To Smoke Pot, April 14, 2005), it is Biblically correct and important to know where the Bible stands on the cannabis issue because of the brainwashing effects of disobedient Christians saying cannabis is evil. It isn't an accident that God created all the seed-bearing plants and said they were all good, on literally the very first page in Genesis 1:11-12 and 29-30? The only Biblical restriction placed on cannabis (kaneh bosm, before the King James Version) is that we use it with thanksgiving -- see Timothy 4:1-5, where it even describes who will promote its prohibition as those who have fallen away from the faith.

The Federal government would like citizens to think cannabis is a chemical weapon of mass destruction; in reality, the table of the Lord is not defiled -- see Malachi 1:6-14, subtitled ¨Sin of the Priests" ( New American Standard Bible ). One reason to stop supporting cannabis prohibition is because when We obey Christ God Our Father and love one another (see John 14-16 & 1 John) We are able to receive the "spirit of truth"; You can not love someone and cage them for using what God says is good.

Truthfully,
