Well that is comforting. The study shows that marijuana may not cause cancer! Nevermind the fact that this low risk is due to the fact that it fucking kills your cells directly, no cancer needed.

(Neither the marijuana causing or not causing cancer, and the THC killing cells have been proved or disproved in the article. I just want to make sure you do a double-take at this line.)

Can you not read? It kills aging cells. It’s a hypothesis backed up by real world evidence.

What got your panties in a twist?

Try reading the link. It’s not like they CLAIM it’s going to cure cancer.

Although I’d find it hilarious if it did.

Lol. I just would like to keep as many of my aging cells I suppose. Why would you want to kill off your cells, especially if it is backed by real world evidence.

I also would like to say that if someone is using drugs to get off drugs, that is a bit contradictory (although it has worked, as has been brought up).

I still don’t see it as being a religous experience though. Maybe you need to experience it to know?

I’m not sure about spiritual experences on pot. Now mushrooms will easily take you on a spiritual quest. They are still used by some tribal spiritual leaders to aid them on their vision quests.

I can still remember every single spiritual quest I’ve had on mushrooms. A lot more interesting than any religion I’ve ever heard of. It’s not for everyone and you pretty much have to have your mind leaning in that direction.

Spirituality is about belief not fact.

245

Some religions use hallucinogens such as mushrooms. Like Zoroastrianism. I havn’t tried them though… yet.

Considering that aging cells are supposed to be more likely to become cancerous… I’ll take my chances. Your body creates new cells to replace the dead ones.

Exactly. If it works, don’t bash it.

Yep. You do need to experience it to understand. Some people define pain and pleasure as the two pathways to “God” or a higher understanding. Why are drugs growing in the ground (Cannabis), or produced every night by our brain (DMT) if we aren’t supposed to use 'em?

:wink:

Also, I wouldn’t call it religious so much as spiritual.

You only have a limited number of cells, I thought? After they are forced to replicate a certain amount of times, your dead. Hence biological clock? --question–

Atomic bombs worked, Guns work, and so does chemical warfare.

Just because something works doesn’t mean that it should be used as a cure. I would think that there are much better alternatives then using drugs to get off drugs. But then again, I’m just arguing until someone else responds to my spiritual “Revelation” question.

Myth: Marijuana is not a gateway drug, as the term “gateway drug” is nonsensical.
Fact: The term “gateway drug” is a legitimate term, used by medical advisors to spread more info about the drug to those unaware of its dangers.

Additionally, the environment and users of marijuana are actively attempting to spread misinformation about the drug to soften its impact on unsuspecting teenagers, making it even more of a gateway drug than during its use in the 60’s.

Myth: Marijuana is not only safer than other illegal drugs, but safer and healthier than alcohol and tobacco.

Fact: Not only is it a deadly gateway drug (killing over 95% of its users), but it has permanent negative effects on decision-making, perception, and stamina, making it much more of a threat than tobacco and alcohol combined. To believe otherwise, you would have to believe that it was possible for people who make the laws to be wrong or dishonest.

Myth: Marijuana is an integral part of many religions, and is only illegal to suppress these religions.

Fact: Marijuana, while it is a part of a few minor cults, is condemned as immoral by all legitimate religious authorities. Adherents to religions advocating marijuana use are advised to find healthier alternatives to the drug, or to convert on to a religion that does not advocate such dangerous activities.

Myth: Marijuana is completely non-addictive.

Fact: Marijuana is not only 1000 times more physically addictive than heroin, but the side effects of the drug often lead to a state of poor decision-making, where a second “joint” seems like a good idea to improve the high from the drug. Due to the long-lasting effects of this mental impairment, it can be said that marijuana gets you hooked from the first use.

Safe, FDA Approved Alternatives to Marijuana

Cigarettes: Marijuana is, in fact, based on the everyday cigarette, but with many harmful additives thrown in to increase the “high” that has been clinically proven to lead to infanticide. Cigarettes are 100% less lethal than marijuana for all parties involved.

Alcohol: There are few better methods of passing time blissfully than alcohol. To counteract claims by protesters in favor of marijuana, alcohol is made entirely from fermented plants, and is therefore both all-natural and vastly safer than marijuana.

Tylenol: Although overdoses of Tylenol can be fatal, the pain removal it offers is nearly as effective as marijuana, and it offers no addiction, making this an effective choice for people who claim marijuana has medicinal uses, against all evidence that marijuana will kill you and everyone you know.

Machete in the groin: Although this has multiple negative effects and no positive ones, it is still much safer and healthier than marijuana. Scientific studies show that the edges of the machete can stimulate the groin, resulting in a 50/50 chance of either increased sexual prowess or total sterility.

The strangest part is that it is always the effect that would be most detrimental to the recipient, furthering evidence of Murphy’s Law.

About Marijuana

The hard street drug Marijuana is a rising and popular gateway drug, known for its ease to obtain, its catastrophic effects, and its uninformed proponents.

The most common form of consumption involves taking the marijuana plant, rolling it in paper soaked in PCP, and inhaling deeply. Marijuana possesses many negative properties and almost no noticeably positive ones.

It was originally grown in laboratories by Islamic terrorists to provide the additional financial cushioning needed for the attacks of September 11, among others.

The Gateway Theory

One of the major risks of marijuana is that it can function as a “gateway drug”. Frequent and even casual users may become fascinated with gates, and as their dependency deepens, they may move on to more elaborate kinds of entries, including arches, turnstiles, and even portcullises.

For this reason, it is prudent to remove the gate from your garden. Otherwise, you may find yourself suddenly beset upon by a reeking mob of spaced-out hippies, who will proceed to trample your flowers and engage in long, philosophical conversations with your garden gnomes.

An unrelated side effect of marijuana is that after being introduced to marijuana, the user may graduate on to ‘harder’ drugs and high-risk behaviors. Casually smoking a joint almost inevitably leads to addition.

But soon the marijuana user needs something more to get high, leading them to engage in cocaine snorting, heroin injection, or street mime. From there, it is only a matter of time before the addict seizes upon kitten huffing as a means of satisfying their cravings.

Unfortunately, once someone has spiraled downward into the depths of feline dependency, there is almost no way back.

A lot of times when I smoke weed, it makes me realize how smoking weed is horrible for my body. I just don’t like the way it makes my chest feel. I’m killing my lungs. I wish it gets legalized soon so I can just bake cookies every time I want to get high.

For the meantime I will have to conserve on that goodness. The dank is going for ~$50 an 1/8th. Who can afford to bake a 100 dollar batch of brownies?

251

what about weed lollipops?

That would be very cool. If weed was legal, then I bet it could be made since there would be a huge industry created. A lollipop that gets you high… For the meantime, we will have to resort to something that can be made with butter, oil, or alcohol.

You can get lollipops that give you an opioid-lollipop(Fentanyl lollipops). They are made for patients with cancer. Also, I’m sure you could make a lollipop/hard candy using a good amount of alcohol with a good ratio to water(think 151). Or if the recipe calls for butter, use cannabutter.

If you google it, you can find ways to make cannabis candy.

Wow, I feel bad for you. If prices for an 1/8th go over $30 canadian no one will touch it over here…unless its really killer.

What the fuck. An 1/8 here goes for 65 US.

257

I smoked some weed that was $45 an 1/8th…
I was high for hours after. Good times…
Nothing better then coming home from the bar and smoking a bowl. I wake up the next day feeling great.

258

If you pay $50 or more for an 8th, it better be that fire or no deal. Mid is like $25-35 a quarter tho but after smoking the purp, the kush, beasters and heades I don’t think I can go back to that.

A) Vaporizer
B) THC counters the effects of the cancer caused by smoking.

True story.
