CHRISTIANITY IMPLIES LEGALIZATION

Dear Editor of the Vanguard,

As a Christian, I'm in favor of ending the sin of caging responsible
adults for using the relatively safe, God-given plant cannabis
(marijuana) and one reason why that doesn't get mentioned ("Heads" vs.
"Feds": The Debate Over Marijuana Legalization, Mar. 1, 2010), 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).

The United States federal government has no moral or logical reason to
cage people for using cannabis or for that matter labeling the plant a
Schedule I substance alongside heroin.

Truthfully,

Stan White
