LIGHT UP

Citizens should not be denied employment ("Job seeker drug use may be
exaggerated," April 8) because of failing a drug test because of
cannabis usage. If people can choose to enjoy beer or wine after work,
cannabis should not be discriminated against.

Another reason to stop discriminating against responsible adult humans
for using cannabis (kaneh bosm/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 (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).
