God made me do it!

" Whatever your heart clings to and confides in, that is really your God"

It appears that this thread has revealed some things about you Wkid! All strong advocates for pro-marijuana are active users!

The question I ask you is "did you use drugs when you rode motorcycles?" I have known several who did and they too had accidents.

*trying to get back to motorcycling here...

"only dopes smoke dope!"

The greatest debating technique....diversion. When lost rebute with a question pointing at the credibility of the person who is winning.

Actually I never have nor will ride or drive stoned/drunk or otherwise impaired.

As for being an active user - I have never indicated I AM PRO-THC use....merely stated the fact that it was condoned and established in the doctrines of the bible you profess to be all knowledgeable about.

Again your inference is incorrect as to the virtues of my supposed drug use.

*sits back and watches the debate*

Points so far:

wkid - 1
zed - nil

and zed - making comments like 'All strong advocates for pro-marijuana are active users!' is a bit sweeping. back your argument/statements up with some facts (gee where have i heard that before????????????)

PMPL laffing. It seems that many religious zealots (and I choose this word purposefully) - only read and take from the bible the points they WANT to hear.

Cannabis is a herb defined in the bible. My only point was the God created it!!! The fact he told Moses to distribute it is another matter. I have never said I am for or against it. I have tried it - who hasn't.

Zed......just concede as I have proven both the points you asked me to prove with factual evidence. Yes - there is a receptor in the human brain an exact chemical match to THC and God DID create cannabis. Given both these facts - it is also able to be inferred God intended us to USE IT also......well the bible says this as well - refer my quotes.

As for riding stoned - that is just fecken stupid

It must be made clear that this is only a hypothesis (theory)


Zed

If I'm not mistaken your career as a minister is based on a hypothesis?

O.K. Zed, try this:
If God is omnipotent (all-powerful) and could have created man perfect, but instead created him imperfect (because he is capable of being tempted into sin); and if He is omniscient (all-knowing), and therefore knew that man would sin, free-will must be an illusion, and God is just another name for Cosmic Practical Joker.
And I can do 180 kph on the Southern Motorway knowing that my licence might be forfeited and my bike confiscated but my eternal soul is in no more jeopardy than if I were puddling along at a dismal law-abiding 100 kph, because God is laughing at me anyway.

Anyway, surely traffic laws are the laws of men (and a few women, no doubt!) - not God - so, does he give a toss! He/she probably has more weighty matters to worry about!

Hmmm. And a very topical signature you have there too SPman.

Suicidal Tendencies "You can't bring me down"

Had a little chuckle when I read your signature.

That song takes me back a bit. I used to play it in an old band. Bastard of a song to play too IIRC.

Though I guess the irony of the lyrics is lost on most people.
