Default Do you believe in The Bible

Found this interesting reading about the use of cannabis by Jesus to heal the sick.

You truly are obsessed with marijuana, Golfingnut. It has been thoroughly discussed here as a tax benefit, recreational use, and medicinal use. Enough already?

I'm sorry Lou but I nearly spit coffee onto my keyboard when I saw your source as High Times Magazine.

Although most modern people choose to smoke or eat pot, when its active ingredients are transferred into an oil-based carrier, it can also be absorbed through the skin, which is in fact one big organ.
That's why I was so stoned at the Bette Midler Red Rocks concert!

I would not want to use the medical knowledge of 30 AD for the various problems of 2014. Personally, I do not like to take any medication of any kind unless I have to for some reason.

I was going to answer the question in the thread title until I saw the real subject matter.

People are beginning to say that Lou is about marijuana how I am about the Morses.

So glad you are back, graciegirl. Have you met the Morses yet?

I smoked some maryjane around 5th grade and never felt much of a desire to try anything after that except where I had no choice because of the weed laced concert venues like those of BB King, Eric Clapton, Yes, Styx, Billy Joel, Bette Midler, Joe Jackson and perhaps some Lake Tahoe Shakespeare plays. Shakespeare must sound better when stoned to some.

People should be able to grow their own so they know exactly where it came from. Planted between the tomatoes and tyme. I'm not sure about totally trusting a pharmacist.

Thanks Lou. I never really read High Times magazine or subscribed to it. I know it's been around a long time. I truly miss National Lampoon magazine. Great rag.

I never have either, I am closer to a good ole boy red neck than I am a hippie. I do care for the old, sick and handy caped very much. I wonder if I am breaking any good ole boy covenants by caring about social ills yet I drink beer, own guns, eat red meat.

It sounds like faith healing. They may not have known what caused what. They mixed a lot of ingredients together and had faith that it would do them good. Was it the ingredients, or was it their faith that healed them?
This might be similar to the placebo effect where non active ingredients actually cure people of various conditions.

I would not want to be in the shoes of anyone throwing verbal stones at Jesus. He is full of grace and truth, but warns against blaspheming the Holy Spirit. He freely offers truth and life and instead people prefer a multitude of lies. I can't go along with the sentiment of this thread that it is humorous to say Jesus healed by marijuana.
