Oh, and people are BORN with psychiatric disorders. They're not caused
by the herb!

Nobody's talking about smoking and driving, except you. We're talking
about if it makes you stupid or not. Just read what michael wrote at
the very beginning of this thread. He's proven it doesn't have any
lasting negative effects on a person's life. Unless someone else makes
an issue out of it.

You actually know the answer? Sweet. Fill us in.

Monkeys might not be able to make Jello, but they know how to use tools
just like us. Maybe not chainsaws and belt sanders, but hey, they are
smart little buggers.

So, raven....you've explained the human brain, but you didn't explain
how that brain got the way it did. The only way for something to grow
into what it has become is over time. Not overnight.
To believe that we just appeared here on earth is just not a likely
scenario.
Was the earth REALLY created in 7 days or has a book with no
particular author tried teaching that to us?
Science has proven humans never lived during the same time as the
dinosaurs, so where's the proof that humans just came outta nowhere.
We as humans are the champions of evolution and should be somewhat
proud of that.

Alcoholics have the Right to get f'd up. It's legal. People who smoke
the herb don't have that same right. Still illegal.
That was is response to you.

Easy peasy lemon squeezy! I wasn't even referring to anything you said.
I'm just responding to the topic. Now, take a deep breath.

Humble/Loyal

You didn't hear me. Watching ourselves from another planet. That means
I have an open mind to the fact that there might actually be life on
other planets.
I never said I didn't think so.

Just imagine looking down at earth from another planet, observing
humans.....we're crazy! Just a bunch of silly creatures running around
trying to survive. Humans as a whole, I mean.
After thinking about that for a while, it's easy for MYSELF to see how
we derived from monkeys.

SO, what exactly are you implying here? Details would be nice.
Sorry, I'm just a stupid monkey man!

Let's delve deeper, shall we

It's like with TV. If you don't like it, change the channel.
If you disagree with the herb, so be it. Just don't bag on those who
happen to NEED it for a condition they might have.
It's really not up to anyone to decide that it's someone's choice to
use it. It helps so many people in so many ways.
Yes some will abuse it like alcohol or even prescription pills, but
the majority of users are those in serious pain or who need it to
stimulate their hunger.

This thread is a trip!
