CANNABIS IS MEANT TO HEAL

Editor:

Christ God Our Father should have some say on this issue ("County 
Joins Pot-Fighting Lawsuit" Aug. 26, 2006), since He created all the 
seed-bearing plants saying they are all good on literally the very 
first page of the Bible (Genesis 1:11-12 and 29-30).

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?" (1 John 3:17).

Often, failed clergy and the "Christian right," influence opposition 
and persecution of cannabis (kaneh bosm/marijuana) and its potential 
to heal gets denied. Ironically, many people believe cannabis is the 
tree of life and the very last page of the Bible (Revelation 22) 
indicates the leaves of the tree of life are for the healing of the 
nations; thus cannabis was and is created to heal and end war.

Cannabis is a blessing to be accepted for our own good; not 
persecuted, prohibited and exterminated.
