Then one possible compromise would be to make it legal only for those under 21. That way you can sow your wild oats and it becomes illegal when you grow out of it.

Would you like to provide some scripture that supports this?

I can find some that might refute your claim, on the contrary.

Quote:
Genesis 1:29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
Quote:
1 Timothy 4:1 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;
1 Timothy 4:2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
1 Timothy 4:3 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.
1 Timothy 4:4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
Quote:
John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labour. This also I saw, that it was from the hand of God.

I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life. And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.
May the hand of God bless you with the gift of God

I interpreted "gift of God" to be quite on topic, FWIW. Don't know if I'm reading it right or not.

In this thread, beginning on the first page of the thread, beginning in post #6, is the first Reference to the Bible pertaining to the OP.

Then while still on the first page of this thread, post #9 again references it.

As do posts #11, #22, #30 and #38.

From the first page of posts, the Bible is being mentioned, and its relationship to the OP.

So after pages and pages of it, in fact 12 pages of it, in post 456, we wish to no longer include the Bible in this thread?

That is pretty amazing.

Being on the atheist/agnostic side of things, I don't have any problem bringing the Bible into this discussion. Genesis 1:29 makes its stand on the matter pretty clear.

Hmm, well I haven't read the entire thread & if you read the OP, religion isn't mentioned in it. So yeah, take your religious speak over to the religion forum. Especially about pot, how the hell you can bring religion into pot, I'll never know.
