MARIJUANA LEGALIZATION BACKED BY BIBLE VERSES

Dear Editor,

Jillian Aramowicz hit the bull's-eye with her Dec. 2 column entitled,
"Marijuana not as dangerous as most legal drugs." Marijuana should be
legalized.

One way to legalize the relatively safe, extremely popular, God-given
plant cannabis is to remove it from being a Schedule I substance
alongside heroin, while meth and cocaine are only Schedule II substances.

Another reason to stop caging responsible adults who use cannabis that
doesn't get mentioned is because it's biblically correct. God, the
ecologician, 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 to accept it with thankfulness (1 Timothy 4:1-5).

Truthfully,

Stan White
