MEDICAL MARIJUANA HAS ROOTS IN BIBLICAL PASSAGES

After reading the April 19 article, "Debate heats up over medical
marijuana," on The Sheboygan Press Web site, I need to respond.

A reason to stop caging sick citizens who use cannabis (marijuana)
that doesn't get mentioned is because it's 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 (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).

And, "But whoever has the world's goods, and sees his brother in need,
and closes his heart against him, how does the love of God abide in
him?" (1 John 3:17).

Jesus Christ risked jail to heal the sick.
