GROWING HEMP

Isn't it anti-American to prohibit American farmers from growing hemp?
Another reason to allow free American farmers to grow the God-given
hemp plant (kaneh-bosm/marijuana) that doesn't get mentioned ("It's
time for a victory for hemp," March 28), is because it's biblically
correct since Christ God our father indicates he created all the
seed-bearing plants, saying they are all good, on literally the very
first page (Genesis 1:11-12 and 29-30). The only biblical restriction
placed on hemp is that it is to be accepted with thankfulness (see 1
Timothy 4:1-5). It's time to reintroduce hemp as a component of
American agriculture.
