i am religious and i agree with that statement. unfortunately people use gays as a target just because they are gay. If people are gonna use the argument thatthey destroy the normal family dynamic, than at least coalition against pornography, bad TV, explicit music, etc along with homosexuality.

I don't believe in God, but there is a clear divide between man's laws and "God's." A while back, slavery was legal. Would someone who kept people as property, treated them inhumanely, but did so within the margins of the law go to heaven? I think not.

[color= rgb(255, 0, 0)]In this case, Marijuana. For the most part, society looks down on Marijuana and people who smoke it/sell it. My question is, do you think God would FORBID you to enter those pearly gates if you sold Marijuana (or anything that's natural)? I mean, after all it's HIS (or her) plants you're selling...and it's not like it's harmful, but because it's against societies law, is it against God's law as well? I'm not religious nor do I believe in organized religion, but I do believe in a higher being, anyone think that distribution or personal consumption is a sin?[/color]

No he wouldn't if that matters. most doesn't even realize it but both Jesus and Moses were baptized in holy water that was partly madefrom flowering cannabis tops.

i like to just not think about it you live your life making the choices you can live with then you die whatever happens happens you cant control if your going to hell or not because no one knows what a sin really is because all we have are books that have been changed over hundreds of years to control people. and its not possible to live by the rules everyone sins and whos to say what sin is serious and what one isnt

Why would drinkers or smokers even go to hell? They're not disrespecting God or anything

Plus even JESUS drank wine, the Last Supper? You even drink wine druing a Catholic communion, so there is NOTHING wrong with alchohol.

Personal consumption isn't a sin IMO.

That is a dumb statement.
So is this one...

"Fear me for I am the Lord"
"Treat others like you want to be treated"

two sayings to live by,

Those two statements contradict themselves. If you believe in a higher being, but not in organized religion, why are you so worried about heavenor hell? Those are religiously conceived terms, and as a non-religious person you should not worry about them.

To answer your question, if I believed in a higher being, and the concept of heaven and hell, I would hope that Goddoes not preoccupy himself with such unimportant aspects of life.

But since I do not believe in either, I will recommend that you follow your own morals and live your life by them, instead of attempting to satisfy this"higher being".

Hey OP, your question made me remember one incident that happen to me one time.

I was finishing up one of my sacraments for Catholism, my confirmation. I was at this retreat. The retreat took place at this house where it had a big backyard and pass the fence, there was the desert, with a dirt road. It was the final days and this man in a truck showed up coming thru the back yard, from thedesert. I saw him come in and I wondered why didn't he come thru the front where there is a paved road. So we are in the room praying and the guy startstalking to everyone individually and people start sobbing afterwards. And when he came up to me, he tells me to stop smoking. I was 15 or 16yrs old and juststarted smoking occasionally. And I trip out and wondered how did this guy know. I don't remember exactly what he said but I do remember him saying stopsmoking. Oh and did I listen, at first nope. But when I hit 23yrs old, I have stopped.
 
I remember some kid telling me that because MJ grows he has to smoke it...His reasoning was well, God put it on earth, I gotta do something with it.
So I asked him about the poison ivy. That plant was growing, why not smoke that?

he didn't have much of an answer after

Im not to religious, but i am a christian. Yes he did create the plant, but i think its like the apple on the tree(Its here but it might besomething he doesnt want us to touch, as in like a test a faith IMO). Mj is a mind altering drug and in the eyes of God im thinking he wouldnt like you to usesomething that will cloud your mind.

My mother always told me its okay to drink and stuff just dont let it take over you(as in you need this thing to feel good, nothing else can help you feelcomplete.)

I see Mj as enlightenment but who knows. We live on this earth its so hard to be 100 percent pure, you have to cross the line somewhere.
 
ive thought aobut this kinda question before OP.


for real................i dont judge no man. but its not for me to do. i cant front like i dont know plenty friends or family who have sold drugs...........imnot talkin just weed either. if thats what they feel they gotta do thats what they gotta do. does that make them bad people?

its a service job to the community.
 
"Gotta thank God for 'cane, I guess that's the twist, if I never sold my rhymes would sound like this:


[ ].


(No words, just a bunch of air and #%#$.)



Clipse go so hard...

nah its not, supposedly as long as you whole heartedly accept God and wholly believe that you'll be saved it doesnt matter if its right beforedeath or 10 years before death

Society doesn't look down on marijuana, the laws look down on marijuana. In todays world, the law and society are two seperate entities. Now crack cocaineon the other hand...

You can drink, not get drunk though...it's not about what you do on substances, it's how you react. I keep a balanced mindstate.
 
Jesus said "Give unto Ceasar what is his, and give unto the Lord what is the Lord's".

that means if the law says do it, God says do it, even if it is not necessarily what God's will is, it falls into God's plan in one way or another.
 
Im pretty sure i dont believe in God, but if i did, heres how i would feel about it:

Way i see it, he (or she, hell) put the stuff here and made us smart enough 2 realize that it's pretty great...so it's kind of his gift 2 us. Imean...it grows out of the damn ground in a usable form. The logic that things are bad because they illgegal and illegal because they are bad has never madesense 2 me...and just because some guys a while ago decided 2 get they nanny on and tell us what we can and cant ingest, doesnt mean the original creator feelsthe same way. I see no reason why je could (or should) hold the fact that we use the resources he put here in the first place against us.
