POT ENDORSED BY GOD

To the editors,

It's encouraging that students are working to bring sanity to 
America's cannabis (kaneh bosm / marijuana) laws ("GW Student 
Association Passes Pro-Pot Resolution," News, Feb. 22, 2007) since 
it's safer than alcohol, less addictive than coffee, hasn't caused an 
overdose in over 5,000 years of documented use and should not be 
prohibited for responsible adults.

Another reason for allowing citizens to use cannabis that doesn't get 
mentioned is because it is Biblically correct. God Our Father 
indicates He created all the seed-bearing plants, saying they are all 
good, on literally the very first page [of the Bible] (see Genesis 
1:11-12 and 29-30). The only Biblical restriction placed on cannabis 
is that it is to be accepted with thankfulness (see 1 Timothy 4:1-5).

Truthfully,

Stan White
