LEGALIZING CANNABIS IS BIBLICALLY CORRECT

The bill Gov. Bill Richardson signed (12 States Give OK To Medicinal 
Cannabis, April 14, by Ed Kociela,) isn't just morally and 
compassionately correct, it's also 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). 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?" (see: 1 John 3:17)
