did i curse the show?

[t-pain]

right, after researching myself, reading the scientific literature and double checking with cdc, population statistics, marijuana usage statistics, i found that all of the often-repeated marijuana harms were complete fear, uncertainty and doubt or just plain lies.

 

The myths were so blatantly false that I made a theory that whatever a prohibitionist says about marijuana is factually opposite of reality.

 

so, for example, when someone says that marijuana kills brain cells, i found the research and patent that shows marijuana is a neuroprotectant, http://www.google.com/patents/US6630507

 

or when some prohibitionist says marijuana causes lung cancer, i found the research that shows marijuana, even by heavy smokers, does not cause lung cancer and even prevents cancer,

" Researchers still do not know whether marijuana smokers have a higher risk for lung cancer."

 

or when a prohibitionist says marijuana causes testicular cancer

Furthermore, compounds found in cannabis have been shown to kill numerous cancer types including: lung cancer [9], breast and prostate [10], leukemia and lymphoma [11], glioma [12], skin cancer [13], and pheochromocytoma [14].

A prayer:

 

 

Please (pretty please with sugar on it) God, open the minds of the prohibitionists and sweep away the web of lies that prevents them from seeing Your truth. Bring them to the realization that living a lie is an impediment to humankind's struggle for advancement. Help them to understand that Jesus cared so little about cannabis that He never mentioned it once in all His teachings. Lead them down the path of righteousness in the name of truth and help them to be able to discern the difference between anti-pot propaganda and the cold, hard light of scientific fact.  We ask this in the name of the one person who knew what was really important in life - your son, Jesus Christ.

 

"It's not what goes into your mouth that defiles you; you are defiled by the words that come out of your mouth."     - Jesus
