CANNABIS WAS NO ACCIDENT

Bernard B. Carman ["Asheville Should Arrest Marijuana Policy,"
(http://www.mountainx.com/opinion/2004/1117letters.php) Nov. 17], got it
right about cannabis being a "God-given plant."

In fact, not only did God put it here, He said He created all the
seed-bearing plants - and said they were all good - on literally the very
first page of the Bible. That is no accident.

Re-legalize cannabis (kaneh bosm before the King James Version), because it
is biblically correct. Obedient Christians do not say the table of the Lord
is defiled or to be despised.

Biblically, it is time to stop caging humans for using a good, God-given
plant.
