Feb. 9, 2009)? Neither state or federal government has the right to prohibit, persecute or exterminate the relatively safe, god-given plant cannabis. Caging responsible adult humans for using cannabis is luciferous. It's time to Re-legalize cannabis and one reason that doesn't get mentioned is because it is Biblically correct since Christ God Our Father, the Ecologician, indicates He created all the seed-bearing plants, saying they are all good, on literally the very first page. The only Biblical restriction placed on cannabis is that it is to be accepted with thankfulness (see 1 Timothy 4:1-5). Cannabis doesn't belong to government; "For the earth is the Lord's, and all it contains" (1 Corinthians 10:26). Cannabis prohibition is the work of the devil.
