1 | question to smoke pot or not | Gen 1:12 | Jeshuafreak | 54843 | ||
I sympathize with you about your son. Young people are very impressionable. I believe that if it was lagalized for those 21 and over, like alcohol, it would help to keep it out of the hands of our maturing teens. I will still say that I believe there is nothing wrong with marijuana... it is the person who takes it to extremes. It is our sinfulness that prompts us to seek after the counterfeit. We end up worshipping the creation rather than the Creator, and that is idolatry. Would be having this discussion if it were about whether or not we as Christians can drink wine? -Jeshuafreak |

2 | question to smoke pot or not | Gen 1:12 | 2ndSamuel22 | 54858 | ||
Dear Jeshuafreak, You wrote,"I believe that if it was lagalized for those 21 and over, like alcohol, it would help to keep it out of the hands of our maturing teens." With all due respect, don't think for a minute that, just as kids find a way to get alcohol, they won't do the same thing with pot. It would actually have the opposite effect. Consider this: A man and wife, parents of a teen, realize, "Hey, pot's legal!" and start firing up at home, with no legal repercussions over their heads. Their kid sees this, and, just like when they see mom or dad with a beer, think "hey, that looks cool!". Kid starts smoking, loses interest in everything else, family strife ensues. Then when they find out he's been toking, they wonder where he ever got the idea to start. Use of any mind-altering drug is unbiblical; it is the spirit of witchcraft(Galatians 5:20). If you want, I can post an article from a Christian Native American website detailing one man's experience with peyote. All drugs are a gateway for demons to enter into our lives. God is my Strength and Power, and He makes my way perfect!! 2nd Samuel 22 |
