But it kind of makes you wonder why God gave us this plant that makes you feel peaceful for a few hours and the intelligence to figure out that it must be dried and smoked to get the benefit. It might be a gift that we should not reject, but use wisely.

No, we should change the law. We've had to get rid of bad laws before.

They only outlawed it because they couldn't control it. Studies have shown that alcohol has worse effects than weed! Legalize it, tax it if you want, just let me smoke in peace!

OK, I have written some verses to a new hymn. Sing to your own tune:

Brother, come here and partake
Of this gift for Jesus' sake
Smoke a bone, or if you want
Bake yourself a nice croissant

Herb to us was giv'n by God
Born of rain and fertile sod
Peace on Earth good will to men
What was I just sayin' again?

Some herbs can be dangerous for some people to take.
