MEDICAL MARIJUANA

Biblical basis As a Colorado Christian, I voted to allow sick citizens to
use and grow cannabis and it works ("Initiative would make marijuana legal
for ill," Jan. 11), because state laws now allow them to possess the
relatively safe God-given plant. One reason to allow sick citizens to use
cannabis that doesn't get mentioned is because it's biblically correct,
since Christ God Our Father, the Ecologician, indicates he created all the
seed-bearing plants, saying they are all good, on literally the very first
page.

Further, cannabis is believed to be the tree of life and the very last page
of the Bible tells us the leaves of the tree of life are for the healing of
the nations.
