THE LORD LOVES POT

I agree with limiting the federal government's
ability to cage sick citizens for using cannabis ["Supremes on Pot,"
sfbg.com, 12/1/04] and wanted to add, further and most important, that
it is biblically correct to stop caging humans for using the plant
cannabis. Our unwavering God said He created all the seed-bearing
plants and said they were all good on literally the very first page of
the Bible. I would also like to see clergy speak up for Christ, God,
our Father, on this issue, since Jesus Christ risked going to jail to
heal the sick.

The entire Bible is against cannabis prohibition. Example: 1 John 3:17,
"But whoever has the world's goods, and sees his brother in need and closes
his heart against him, how does the love of God abide in him?" The Bible
describes who will even propose such prohibition as those who "fall away
from the faith," in 1 Timothy 4:1-5.
