The Editor, Sir:
I was pleased to read David Murray, the paid U.S. government subsidised prohibition propagandist (US Again Dismisses Lax Ganja Talks, April 27, 2005) get His 'statements rebuffed'.
Since Murray is part of the 'Christian White House', it is also important to know where the Bible stands on the cannabis issue, because of the brainwashing effects of discredited governments saying cannabis is evil. It is biblically correct to re-legalize cannabis (known as kaneh bosm, before the King James Version).
no accident
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. The only Biblical restriction to 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.
The U.S. Government would like citizens to think cannabis is a chemical weapon of mass destruction. In reality, the table of the Lord is not defiled. See Malachi 1:6-14, subtitled "Sin of the Priests" (New American Standard Bible). Biblically, it is time to stop caging humans for using what Christ God Our Father, the 'Ecologician', says is good.
