Yes? No? Maybe...

A religion exists which is peaceful, prayerful and loving.  They worship their deity with love and full belief, they harm no one, and make no loud proclamations toward conversion.  They honor their faith every day, unfailingly and faithfully.  They sound incredibly happy, at peace.

Now I'll tell you the name of their god:  cannibis sativa which to those born after the 60s is marijuana.  They are in Arizona, have 50 members and are called the Church of Consciousness.

I was thinking - a crafty tax dodge?  A test of our right to worship as we please no matter the deity?  Could it be some method of using pot legally, by having their religion taken through the Courts for what Judge Scalia always called "a yellow line of distinction in the law"?  ARE the marijuana laws outdated, when during Reagan's terms in office he had so many pot smokers locked away for years, leaving little room for the poor killers? 

What do you dare to think?

I am opposed to the legalisation of cannabis, for the harm the weed does. It can precipitate schizophrenia or psychosis in those predisposed to those afflictions; long term use definitely affects brain function adversely.
Finally, it would be giving in to criminal pressure.

WHAT????? You lost me there! There is only ONE GOD period! Be it a plant, animal, or whatever. End of subject. That's where I draw the line, no trouble with any religion (true relgion), except where they worship more than one God.
And to call this a relgion? I feel so sorry for them.
