ERIKA ADDS INSULT TO INJURY

Erika Kubassek is flat out incorrect in the assumption that "God opposes 
pot smoking." Numerous biblical references abound alluding to "herb-bearing 
seed" (which cannabis most certainly is) and its references to it "being 
for meat" and that "God saying that it was good" can in fact be found in 
the authorized King James version of the Holy Bible.

Genesis 1:11-13, Genesis 1:27-31 . . . to name but a few references that 
stand as testimony to this fact.

It is the blatant misconstruing of matters spiritual based on ill-concocted 
"moral" inventions perpetuated by the likes of the letter writer which in 
fact contribute to the deluded notion that there is justification for the 
continuation of cannabis prohibition. And then there are the medicinal 
considerations.

It adds insult to injury to even consider the number of biblical trespasses 
abhorred by God (including blasphemy) that the letter writer herself has 
breached in her attempt to vilify cannabis, and the Reverend Brothers 
Tucker and Baldasaro.
