BIBLE SUPPORTS LEGALIZED POT

To the editor:

When considering repealing the cannabis prohibition ("Decriminalization: A
Growing Debate," April 8), it is also important to know where the Bible
stands on the cannabis issue because of the brainwashing effects of people
saying cannabis is evil.

It is Biblically correct to re-legalize cannabis (known as kaneh bosm,
before the King James Version) and not just decriminalize it. It should not
be treated as though it is more harmful than alcohol.

It's no accident the Bible indicates God created all the seed-bearing plants
and said they were all good, on literally the very first page in Genesis
1:11-12 and 29-30. The only Biblical restriction placed on cannabis is that
we use it with thanksgiving. See 1 Timothy 4:1-5, where it also describes
who will promote its prohibition as those who have fallen away from the
faith.

Government would like citizens to think cannabis is a chemical weapon of
mass destruction. In reality, the table of the Lord is not defiled. Seeee
Malachi 1:6-14, subtitled "Sin of the Priests" in the New American Standard
Bible.

Biblically, it is time to stop caging humans for using what is good.
