Christ God Our Father indicates He created all the seed-bearing plants, saying they are all good, on literally the very first page (see Genesis 1:11-12 and 29-30). The only biblical restriction placed on cannabis is that it be accepted with thankfulness (see 1 Timothy 4:1-5). Anyone who thinks it is okay to cage humans for using or growing what God says is good is a fool. Stan White, Colorado reader - --- MAP posted-by: Beth Wehrman
