State Sen. Constance Johnson’s new campaign is apparently based on Genesis 1:29, which deals with the biblical story of creation and the Lord’s intentions for mankind.
The verse reads: “Then God said, ‘I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.’”

“We’re putting forth Genesis 1:29 as the basis of this campaign,” she said after filing a statewide initiative to try and take the issue to voters, the outlet reported. “God created this wonderful, miraculous plant and we know that it has been vilified for the last 100 years, and it’s time to change that in Oklahoma.”
How fitting that it's being discussed on "The Blaze."

This has got to make the stereotypical liberal's brain explode. Support legalizing pot (but support listening to the bible in the process), or denounce the bible and don't support legalization of weed.

Well played, Constance, well played.
She's a Democrat. Why would she want to make liberals' heads explode?
The fact that she's a Democrat in Oklahoma means her proposal will go nowhere, but if it did ever come to a vote, conservative heads would explode -- because they would be forced to vote against the Bible.

Harrier is a conservative and considers the war on drugs to be a travesty.
There are also plenty of non-Christian conservatives.

It was a joke...lighten up...
I am 100% in favor of legalizing pot, and haven't been inside a church (other than weddings/funerals) in about six years.
About time they use the Bible to actually justify something GOOD!
That's gotta be a first.
