I too have heard those arguments. I’ve debated them elsewhere, so haven’t added them yet to the place I’ve set aside to dissect them. Mainly I’ve been trying to clear other hurdles.

As we all know, those are religious arguments and have no place in our government’s laws! Even as an attack against others, outside of government’s laws, they are flawed.

Like you point out and link to, these laws are an immoral, illegal, unconstitutional, and un-Biblical religion of hate against plants God gave us.

And it also says God reaps where he did not sow! [Matthew 25:14-29]

So even if God didn’t make those plants — an argument I patently reject — we know that God still reaps where he did not sow and makes it his own, giving it to people who love him.

Those people are flat wrong! Borrowing another line from the Messiah as he told off the religious leaders of his time: they don’t know either the scriptures or the power of God!

I’ve gone to my legislators, in person, and handed them pages I printed out from the website: http://ChristiansAgainstProhibition.org/

You asked for a flyer, I was in the process of making a graphic but realized it could/should be a flyer, so I put it online. There’s a story behind it, but I won’t type it up here. It’s still pre-version-1, but useable to cover the basic points. I’ve recently posted some other hard-hitting essays; shaking the fence so hard there shouldn’t be many fence sitters if they read them.

For various technical reasons I won’t go into here, in order to access the “Printer-friendly version” link for any page, you must sign in. Since you have taken the time to register, when you visit and sign in, you will see that link at the bottom of each page. (If you forgot your password, on the sign in page you will see a link to have a new one emailed to you immediately.)

At some point I will fancify the print out somewhat, but for now it prints the headline and the body, no fuss no muss. No wasted ink.

The only downer for you potentially is I haven’t written much specific to marijuana, it’s mostly anti drug war in general. But I have a new essay in the “Despise the Shame” series I hope to publish soon that will focus on cannabis. However, any of the anti drug war essays can be used as a lead-in to talk about the need for ending marijuana prohibition.

In the mean time, you are welcome to add comments to any pages leaving suggestions for improvement!

The only other downer is some very hateful and angry drug warriors or cartel members have discovered the site and have been attacking it daily! Thus making it really slow or even inaccessible! Grrr!

- May I share with you, the immortal words of one
of my finest-HEROES and science-champion;
late Swiss cerebral-chemistry researcher…

Albert Hofmann
( 11-Apr-1906 ~~ 29-Apr-2008 ):

“- I think that the possibility to have psychedelic experience is inborn.
- These psychedelics – very similar compounds are in our brain; of all the compounds which you find in the plant kingdom only the psychedelics are so closely-related chemically to these brain factors, which we already have.

We speak about the paradise of childhood.
When I had this vision and beautiful experience as a child, this is no wonder, because we have these compounds already in our brain.

Who hasn’t used God’s name in their posts? To Genesists…those who honor and practice the Genesist Faith…cannabis is “Manna”…the Holy Sacrament for CDXX Communion. It’s a connection with the evidence of “L”. “L” is the original biblical term for God. God gave us “Manna.” In fact…God in his/her infinite wisdom…gave us “Manna” before he/she gave us…us! God created “Manna” in Genesis I:11,12. God gave us “Manna” in Genesis I:29,30,31. God reaffirmed his/her gift of “Manna” in Genesis IX:3. God also gave us an endo-cannabinoid system. Genesists believe that…if God didn’t want us to have and hold “Manna”…why did he/she give it to us. That’s not a question for the faithful. Genesists have belief and trust in our Faith. It’s a question for the faithless. Why?

Enough said…believe what you will…but…believe that Genesists will have and hold their belief system at all costs. The Religious Freedom Restoration Act, and the United States Constitution will prevail against all odds.

This is my Bible! It is the word of my creator! I am who it says I am! I can do what it says I can do! God’s word leads me to where I am going! I will go there as a leader, or as a follower, the sheep herder, or the sheep! Jimbo…which way will you go?

I should not overlook the obvious. God has given me an endo-cannabinoid system…and…his gift of Manna to satisfy that system’s requirements. If man deprives us of that gift…man is interferring with God’s children, and God’s will for them…much the same as if man would deprive his felloe man his breath, his soul, his Faith, and his life.

Does this better make you feel armed with the word of God and his will. If so!…God bless you my brother.

I totally agree with both of you guys
as you both make very fine points,
but the reality here in the “deep south”
AKA the “bible belt” is that their is an iron curtain
to be dealt with that most parts of the country do not
have to deal with in that our local governing bodies are combined by
hard nosed law enforcement, the church, big business owners,
biased local media and our governing politicians who will only listen
to the for mentioned entities that we are surrounded by.

RE: Jimbo,
- I understand exactly what you’re saying.
I find it ridiculously-ironic, (and quite frustrating),
that so many of those professing to believe the
“Word of God” end up denying the veracity of the
very first chapter of the very first book of their bibles
when it comes to cannabis, (as well as many other forms
of God-Given plant-life having intense effects upon the
human-body), while embracing all sorts of humanly-made,
laboratory-devised compounds, far-removed from God’s
Creation / Nature that was, (SPECIFICALLY), made for us.

FYI:
- Our brains also contain a gland which secretes
‘hallucinogenic’ tryptamines, responsible for the ability to dream,
and conceptualize-visually, coincidentally, found in certain God-given plants,
custom-made for US!

1 Timothy 4:1-5 (King James Version)

1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly,
that in the latter times
some shall depart from the faith,
giving heed to seducing spirits,
and doctrines of devils;

2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy;
having their conscience seared with a hot iron;

3 Forbidding to marry,
and commanding to abstain from meats,
which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving
of them which believe and know the truth.

4 For EVERY creature of God is good,
and nothing to be refused,
if it be received with thanksgiving:

5 For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

As for making donations, you have to realize that most of the cannabis loving people here are at or below the poverty level and as noble of a gesture it is to make these much needed donations, the majority of us just don’t have the means because the real money here is in the pockets of those big business owners I mentioned earlier.

What we really need here is a show of face and support, in the form of large crowds of people marching in the streets and getting out fliers on the street corners of places like Atlanta, Birmingham…etc. as well as starting movements in the smaller, but fairly large towns like Columbus GA, Montgomery AL…etc.

You guys must understand that, that’s the only way to get poor people to the polls and opening the eyes of our governing bodies.

What we really need, here in the “bible belt” is help in forming alliances with high ranking people from NORML, MPP, ASA…etc…etc…etc…to come down here and help us get a movement kick started through first dealing with these hard core bias media entities and secondly, analyzing our situation with those other for mentioned governing bodies and thirdly, helping people like myself in the re-education process that needs to take place so badly and fourthly, help us lobby for money and support for our allies. Until this happens, we are doomed!

I absolutely, wholeheartedly believe that “the bible belt” is not only the last frontier for canna legalization, but also holds the key to full all out legalization of marijuana in this country and the reason for that is because, if you can make it happen in this part of the world, with the kind of opposition “WE” are up against, you can see it through anywhere!

Sure, California was able to get it done! they are some of the most open minded people in the world, but if you can convince a “fundamental baptist” that our government has gotten it wrong, all these years?…well now…that would be impressive!

Do you cat’s see where I’m coming from? WE NEED HELP!!!
