GOD DIDN'T MAKE MARIJUANA SO PEOPLE COULD SMOKE IT

TO THE EDITOR:

I am writing in response to the April 24 letter arguing that God
approves of marijuana misuse. The fact that God created all plants and
that they are all good in no way justifies the perverted use of them.
Do you honestly believe that smoking marijuana is God's intended
purpose for cannabis?

Some studies have shown that there are more cancer-causing agents in
marijuana smoke than in tobacco smoke. How can you say that
permanently damaging your lungs is biblically correct? See 1
Corinthians 6:19.

Also, many people who smoke marijuana believe it is safe to drive
while high. This is a horrible misconception. Being high is
scientifically proven to lower reaction abilities and driving under
the influence of marijuana has many times proven fatal to the driver
and many innocent people.

I assure you God does not approve of killing innocent people. See
Exodus 23:7.
