    Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.--Isaiah 1:17

      Not usually, but this time you are.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

            So, I wouldn't take marijuana because I'd rather not have dulled mental processes. Same reason I don't drink alcohol.

              Exactly -- I have enough damaged brain cells as it is!

                I wouldn't use it recreationally. I might use it for pain management, if necessary. I hear that it is less addictive than some pain medications.

                  If that does not describe you your username does describe you and you are not an orthodox Christian and should not be posting here.
                  --------------------
                  Cry me a river. Show me something I posted that you can prove doesn't go by ANY of the Creeds, not just the oldest.... And show me how my interpretation of scripture was wrong, because I'm sticking to scripture over your interpretation of the creed.

                  When you go to immediately trying to get me banned just so you can avoid the conversation points, you don't present as a very intelligent guy. I"m sorry I intimidate you so much that you need to lash out as you did here.

                  We can work on that if you are willing.
                  Oh my, I simply asked the question to find out if you were eligible to be posting in this thread. If you are a Christian you are welcome in this thread. Simple as that. You seemed to me to be a bit looney so I felt I had the right to ask the question.

                    Pot was just made legal here in Oregon. I have no plans on using it for two reasons.

                    1. I hate even when I have to take Excedrin.

                    2. I'm dumb enough without it.
                    "Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." ― C.S. Lewis, God in the Dock: Essays on Theology (Making of Modern Theology)

                        It would be even worse if we were actually on drugs... which is why we don't! Caffeine and sugar doesn't count.

                          Caffeine is a psychoactive drug.

                            My doctor told me to drink more coffee.

                            True.

                            So it is is medical coffee and not recreational.

                              Presumably the only psychoactive recreational drug we might use. That's why I made it an exception to the not using recreational drugs!
