It is pathetic how our leaders are even entertaining this idea of legalizing Marijuana here in The United States of America! We need leadership that will not even entertain such nonsense! Instead of putting wasteful time in this destructive conversation we should be addressing the real problems in America and making a stand against what is not right by God in our homes!
I speak from experience on how marijuana will negatively affect our society and it is my prayer that our President says enough is enough and we are going to rebuild this country! Leadership is not about giving in to our immediate desires but it is about looking beyond the present to see the future outcome.

I carry no shame and I know what is in my heart to be true. The truth only offends us when we know that we are guilty…amen
James 4:4 Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend to the world makes himself an enemy of God.
Please understand that my stance is for our future and not for our desires. We have way to many other issues that need to be addressed here in America and legalizing marijuana does not even rank on the list.
Lets stay focused on positive growth and working together instead of against one another.
You sir (or madam) are a moron! Your perspective that ties God and religion to marijuana use are so wrong you should be ashamed of yourself!
… I as always, will respect your opinion, however, I still believe that we should follow God’s instruction concerning the fact that there is a time and a place for everything that we do. God did indeed create marijuana and He also created wine, sex and many other things, but that doesn’t mean that He could be seen walking from town to town with a bottle of wine in His cloak or openly flirting with various women, either. We should always be respectful of our surroundings and other men or women of God that may be near us so as not to make one of your brothers stumble.
Also, I am not sure that our leaders should spend very much time on this issue. I mean if they want to legalize it, just do so, tax it, put age restrictions on it like cigarettes, and move on! There is allot of important stuff going on right now that needs their attention.
Lastly, how can you call the author of this post a moron? You must keep God in all areas of your life, including your use of marijuana! The day you take God out of your day-to-day life, is the day you will start falling to sin. Don’t call the author a ‘moron’ if what you really want to do is hate/dis-like God’s principles.
… Just my two cents! 🙂
Matt, you are so right stating “Also, I am not sure that our leaders should spend very much time on this issue. I mean if they want to legalize it, just do so, tax it, put age restrictions on it like cigarettes, and move on! There is allot of important stuff going on right now that needs their attention.”. So on that we do agree….
