RIGHT ON, SIR RONALD

Dear Editor,

Sir Ronald Sanders got an arrow-splitting bull's eye ("Decriminalising
marijuana - taking the high ground", October 31, 2010), exposing
cannabis prohibition as just plain wrong.

Speaking of "religious purposes", another reason to stop caging
responsible adults for using the relatively safe plant cannabis that
doesn't get mentioned is because it is 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 be accepted with
thankfulness (see 1 Timothy 4:1-5).

What kind of government cages its own citizens for using what God says
is good?
