 funny.
the Mazatec indian shamans have smoked salvia to induce hallucinations for medical and religious ceremonies for centuries...
interesting thing i've been reading about a people called the yanomamo of brazil rain forests - they often take leaves from a special plant, grind it up, and blow it into eachothers noses (snort it) to trip and conduct religious ceremonies, magic, etc.

Although I always take biblical interpretations with a grain of salt, the fact that cannabis was used back then has not been disproven.
I don't believe Jesus was using marijuana in the recreational way that most users use it today. I believe he was aware of its medicinal properties and used it as such. Because of this, I don't think that cannabis use in Biblical times should be used as an arguement for recreational marijuana use in modern times. It can however, be used as a valid arguement for medicinal use.
In any case, I think marijuana should be legalized. It needs to be regulated, it can create more jobs and tax revenue, and is much safer than alcohol.
I think legal marijuana's biggest detractor is the stereotypical pot head. Much of society believes that marijuana plays a major role in the pot head's laziness and other faults, when in fact, these people were already prone to laziness.
Also, the arguement that marijuana is a gateway drug is moot. Any easy to obtain drug can be considered a gateway drug. I believe tobacco/alcohol should be considered gateway drugs before marijuana. But without any of these substances, some other drug would be the gateway drug.
I feel that we'd be better off without any 'drug' (used solely for mind altering purposes), but obviously we have them. We need to make the best out of the situation, rather than push it off as just 'bad and illegal'.

That's what we in the real world call pot heads. You just like to make up excuses for it.

I bet its true, hemp dates back to that time also. Marijuana being illegal keeps hemp illegal as well. Hemp is an amazing plant, but because its the male version of marijuana we are forced not to use it. Cannabis is the most usefull plant in the world, over 25,000 uses and growing. [censored] it could be used to fuel our homes and cars. Probably could save the world. Food, Fuel, Fiber, the worlds ultimate plant.
Hemp for Victory!!!!
