Wasn't there a court case recently. The shop owner was initially found
guilty, but was overturned by the Appeal Court, Judgement saying that
the offence did not exist in law. Sounds like the BBC are trying to
build a case here. I do think cannabis should be legalised NON
commerically so peole can grow and share so that the most auspicious
manifestation of this remarkable consciousness changing drug can
manifest. Or a genuine free market of around £5 per quality onze.
Something has to be done. The current situation of criminality and
egoising abusive scum controlling the weed has to go. £150 for a tiny
bit of a plant (an onze) is sick. Very often its underweight and damp
- absolute rubbish! (generalising). On the other hand it should not be
hyped to young adults. In the right setting it is ok, even for young
people. What is the right setting? Good question! Old school peace
convoy sharing circle? (where consciousness of Mother Earth within
context of respect for tribal people etc can be awoken using these
sorts of drugs and crucially within a context of good works and
positive energy and activity) Sure but most people have absolutely no
idea of that world - how can that be foculised on a community wide
basis? Otherwise I would say to young people to be very careful with
their health and bodies because currently as things are there are many
seemingly sound but actually abusive scenes that can £!!£ you up.
Difficult to explain. If you are REALLY interested in these sorts of
drugs and determined to try them, I would recommend that you WAIT and
make the effort when old enough to travel to the relevant areas of the
world and take them in the native setting of (ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS) a
religious type setting. Thus go to India Himalaya for cannabis, and
away from (western) tourist areas please. There you are likely to have
an auspicious opening of occult as is the prime use of this drug, ok,
rather than the possibility of the western negative parralel, so
called skitzaphrenia - a bad trip that the pot heads are in denial of.
Lets me emphasise - its not the drug per say, its the setting, the
'west', that causes this so called disease due to basically religious/
ritual factors. People do go for years with the trip just contained in
their head, BUT it can open you out to the occult outside the box type
thing, and this can be a negative total freak out opening in the
'west'. Its just much much less likely to have this pyscotic break
thing in the context of the east due to the ordinary peoples religion.
And these days with rave culture especially there are so many wee
assholes dealing this stuff and strutting about on ego trips, pissing
around with buyers heads and all the rest of it. The solution is to
create a 'nice game' senario for cannabis useage - please a situation
of non commercial free supply or free market...in Holland it is very
expensive and all the bull needs to be taken out of the equation so we
can just have sharing and good effect which then leads to positive
action in ones life. I do realise that this world is a million miles
from the mainstream world especially the world of polititons and
tabloid newspaper editors...and thats the point, i.e. radical and
total change of consciousness is required (to be in Balance with
Mother Earth). Cannabis in a ritual context can produce this, and take
it further to real time magic happening aound you. That can happen
without cannabis, in this context cannabis just makes the thought
process and thus the magic stronger.

In my younger day we used to trek to Afghanistan for the delights of

wouldn't like to guess what would happen these days if youngsters took
the journey thanks to Dubyas work. Maybe it was just his way of stopping

incredible there basically because there is non none of that masonic
type 'christian' total and complete f'ing instanity.

13/goddess/Mother Earth connection/ritual being the 'grail' to real
time magic.

You are a skitzaphrenic Ken - a masonic skitz. Cannabis usually breaks
people out of that program and transcneds consciousness, unless scum
like you are able to screw up and pervert the trip. You're a headcase
Ken, a dinasour. You're going to hell Ken.

You're a 'christian' right Ken - you believe in the terminology of
heaven and hell in the afterlife (as if it was black and white as
that) - well, a hell type reality is where you're headed to, fascist
headcase. Cannabis is not just OK, but in fact a useful plant, all
things being equal. (i.e. untill masonic robots like you get to work
on the situation). In other words fuk off and die irrelevent
dinasoural scum.

And if you was a proper christian you would know that when God said
something like "and I give man all seed bearing plants as food for the
body"

Ken however fails to agree with God on this subject and in his wisdom
prefers to tell his fellow lost sheep the total opposite to what God has
directed him to do.

Not only does this make Ken a hypocrite but a dam ignorant fool to boot

Ah, so you're not really a doctor; you're just an ignorant and

the evidence that Jesus existed: they may doubt that Jesus was God,
but they have no doubt that a Jew of that name existed and was put to

I don't see why life on earth should be special or unique. I have no doubt
other planets have life forms. But the chance of a nearby habitable planet
having intelligent life at the same time as us is minimal. Having
technology at, or past, our level is even more unlikely. There's
100,000,000,000 stars in this galaxy. If 1% have habitable planets and
0.1% of those have intelligent life, that means there are 1,000,000
planets with intelligent life in our galaxy alone. Then there are another
100,000,000,000 galaxies ....

Intergalactic Quidditch anyone?

How about other dimensions?

I would just like to point out we tend to anthropomorphize the meaning
of life, and see it as material forms composed of atoms and molecules.

Life exists all around us in non-material (spiritual or pure enery)
form, and the essence of our being is spiritual.

Using cannabis helps us realize this, and is why its such a powerful
sacrament. It's no wonder that the lords of the material world try to
stomp it out...... they want us to worship materialism and their Golden
Rule..... "those that have the gold make the rules".

It can't be directly demonstrated scientifically, since pure energy
cannot be detected by material based instrumentation. All of our
instruments rely on energy having a mass-equivalence. So you are
in a position of having to believe in your experiences.... the basis
of all religions. God dosn't expect you to believe in some books given
to you by the power structure...... he wants you to believe in what you
have experienced.

Ken Down
Not neccessarily, and you bring up the reason why cannabis has curative
properties. It is the psychosomatic link. When you are very young,
children seem to know about spirits and energies, but as we are
conditioned into the material world, we increase our separation of our
soul from our bodies, and tend to settle into believing our body is the
only reality. As our souls become increasingly separated, it loses the
ability to make the needed changes in our bodies to keep them
regenerating and healthy.
Cannabis helps bring the soul (pure energy life) back into the body and
allows the healing to take place.

It is a medecine given to us by God. It is NOT mucking up your mind,
it is allowing you to see more clearly. Of course, you may consider
"seeing more clearly" as mucking up your mind, because you are afraid
to face the truth of spiritual reality and the workings of your karma.
If that is the case, alcohol is better for you.....it helps you forget,
and separate further from your soul.

Since you are on a campaign to avoid chemicals that "muck up your mind",
what is your position on anti-depressants, tranquilizers, alcohol,
sugar, insulin, blood pressure pills, sleeping pills, and all the other
un-natural pharmaceuticals that society is becoming hooked on?

At least cannabis grows on plant, and can be free to all, as God
envisioned. The DEA is the arm of the devil, and wants us all hooked
on chemicals his corporations make.

Er - I think you are using big words whose meaning you do not know.
"Psychosomatic" refers to the effect of being given a placebo, told
that it is a powerful drug, and promptly getting better. (It can work
the other way round, of course, and make you worse.)

If you are claiming that the marijuana you smoke is a placebo I'd have
a serious word with your dealer, if I were you. He's taking you for a
ride.

Since you are on a campaign to avoid chemicals that "muck up your mind",
what is your position on anti-depressants, tranquilizers, alcohol,
sugar, insulin, blood pressure pills, sleeping pills, and all the other
un-natural pharmaceuticals that society is becoming hooked on?
You forgot tobacco and caffeine. I don't use any of the above apart
from sugar, and that only in the smallest quantities possible - ie.
your breadmaker won't produce bread unless you add suger.

At least cannabis grows on plant, and can be free to all, as God
envisioned. The DEA is the arm of the devil, and wants us all hooked
on chemicals his corporations make.
Ah, so your drug taking has given you a cosmic conspiracy theory?

It can't be directly demonstrated scientifically, since pure energy
cannot be detected by material based instrumentation.
Ah, so do tell me how you know that this undetectable energy exists -
other than by getting out of your head on drugs.
No, I said it helps. It puts you in touch with your soul and God. It's a
medecine for people. Some people don't need it, others do. Your problem
is that you want to deny others their freedom to choose. You seem to
dislike people who seek a deeper connection with their souls and God,
thru the use of a God-given herb. Do you dislike God? Do you even
believe in God? Do you believe in the concept of a soul?

Caffeine was originally banned by the church as the devil's drink.
How would you like it if that tyranny persisted? No coffee mucking
up your mind. Why should we allow you to get physical energy out of
your body, by some drug like caffeine? You get all crazy on caffeine.
You should be able to get energy without caffeine. But I know that
caffeine makes life easier, and is a pleasure of this world if not used
to excess. So I say use it if you can handle it. Its up to YOU.

If we passed laws outlawing sugar , because it leads to
diabetes, mental aberrations(hyperactivity), fat children, and rotten
teeth, you and your minions would scream that society has no right to
take away the right to choose.

Why can't you let others make their own descisions? How would you like
it if we said, coffee and sugar and detrimental to society and everyone
should take Soma pills instead?

Which would you trust more.... a God-given herb or a man-made chemical
from a pharmaceutical company?

Not neccessarily, and you bring up the reason why cannabis has curative
properties. It is the psychosomatic link.
Er - I think you are using big words whose meaning you do not know.
"Psychosomatic" refers to the effect of being given a placebo, told
that it is a powerful drug, and promptly getting better. (It can work
the other way round, of course, and make you worse.)
You don't understand the meaning of big words.

From the dictionary:
psychosomatic

1 : of, relating to, concerned with, or involving both mind and body
<the psychosomatic nature of man <Herbert Ratner>

The psychosomatic link, means the link that exists between the psyche
and the somatic body....
the link between mind and body, and on a deeper level the link between
your soul (karma) and body. You seem to limit the term to what the
pharmaceutical companies define it as, but that is to be expected from
someone with a limited mind.

You wouldn't happen to be a pill pushing salesman from big-pharma, would
you? Or maybe you are a gangster, who
makes big profits from illegal cannabis. What's your game? Why do you
deny others their freedom to choose, and consequently create a black
market? Maybe you are a cop..... getting a 50 grand per year salary to
put people in jail on cannabis charges? Or maybe a lawyer.... getting
10 grand a pop to get the arrested off with probation? Maybe you are
just a dumbass brainwashed idiot, who gets a feeling of power by denying
other people their freedom? What is your game?
Post by Kendall K Down
If you are claiming that the marijuana you smoke is a placebo I'd have
a serious word with your dealer, if I were you. He's taking you for a
ride.
You used the word placebo, not me. You confuse yourself with your puny
mind. I and others would prefer it, if you kept your puny mind out of
our affairs. Nothing is worse than a pea-brain, who tries to impose his
will upon others.

I make bread without sugar, why can't you? It sure helps to have sugar
in there, but it isn't necessary. Your bread-making skills seem to be
as good as your understanding of cannabis.

The difference between us, is that you are advocating prohibiting
the substance that we desire, while we don't prohibit you....and give
you the freedom to indulge in your substances.

When you deny someone their freedom to choose, you incur karma onto
yourself. You are taking it upon yourself to deny others, based on your
limited experiences. So when people stand before God in judgement, and
God says to them "Why didn't you use cannabis as was given to mankind?",
we all point our fingers at guys like you, Ken Down. I hope
you can handle the pressure, because it will surely land on your
shoulders, because you took it upon yourself to decide for others.

I'm sure that made you laugh, but just wait until the karma
catches up with you. If you don't like it, don't decide for others.

I won't be there with you, and I'm sure that pleases you; it sure

hand of God, because that is the preferred direction He passes the

You can sit at the left hand of the Devil, as that is the preferred

I'm against *anything* that is harmful to either mind or body. Mind
you, your diatribe against sugar is as foolish as the rest of your
arguments. Sugar is found in virtually every food and is an essential
source of energy - real energy, not the non-existent "spiritual"
energy you blather about. The harm in sugar comes from its overuse.
Post by zentara

Why, I wonder, is marijuana a "God-given herb" which everyone should
rush out and swallow but digitalis isn't? How about poisonous
mushrooms? Are they "God-given herbs"? (Don't tell me: you groove on
magic mushrooms as well, right?)
Post by zentara
What's your game? Why do you deny others their freedom to choose
Because some people haven't grown up sufficiently to know when
something is bad for them. I'm all for denying people the choice to
ride their bikes on motorways, work with asbestos without breathing
gear, climb buildings without safety ropes and all sorts of other
things.

You are right; I laughed out loud. I rather suspect the bad karma -

and for encouraging others to self-harm with drugs.

I don't see why life on earth should be special or unique. I have no doubt
other planets have life forms. But the chance of a nearby habitable planet
having intelligent life at the same time as us is minimal. Having
technology at, or past, our level is even more unlikely. There's
100,000,000,000 stars in this galaxy. If 1% have habitable planets and
0.1% of those have intelligent life, that means there are 1,000,000
planets with intelligent life in our galaxy alone. Then there are another
100,000,000,000 galaxies ....
Yes, I know the statistics. It would not surprise me if there was
intelligent life elsewhere, if not in our galaxy then in some other
galaxy.

However if there is intelligent life, I think it probably has better
things to do with its time than make crop circles and abduct
Americans.

Unless, of course, there is such a thing as marijuana up there ...
Intergalactic Amdo, anyone?

That's obviously to disguise the prankster's footprints.

Its a useful religious/occult sacrament.
Yes, I suppose if you equate religion with being out of your head,
you're right.
So what we see here is Ken being an ignorant twat again who openly
expresses his "self" as a christian, yet fails to have a grasp of the
fundamental sacrament process of the inner tent of the main temple of the
religion he professes to be party to.

Please note the following is a loose translation from the top of me
head....

"And the alter is to be made of shittim wood", and the incense is to be
made of shittim wood and you burn the shittim until the tent is full of
the sweet smelling smoke of the shittim"

Now wtf is "shittim wood" Well let me tell you Ken, shittim is red acacia
and the bible tells you to make an alter of it, and to make an incense of
the bark thorns and pods of the shittim and burn it on the alter in the
inner temple

But here's the best part, This particular wood "shittim" is that very
tree that God says to make the temple incense from and is in fact the
very tree that has the highest levels in the whole world of a compound
called dimethyltryptamine (DMT), 5-methoxy-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-DMT)
and N-methyltryptamine (NMT). Which are the most powerful psychoactive
drugs on our planet. The alkaloids found in Acacia "shittim" are 1000x
more powerful than LSD.

So yet again here is Ken the ignorant fool who sees the world through his
anus blind as can be, leading the other blind fools into a ditch. The
problem is that he Ken does not know a dam thing about any such thing and
is simply taking a moral high ground given to him by the masonic cult he
is part of for the sole purpose of stopping persons experiencing this
sacrament, because when you do use this sacrament you realise that there
are cunts like Ken out there that are like the tax collectors the bible
warns us of and the control systems that man devises to control others
with. Ken knows what will happen if everyone starts to wake the fuck up
by using such sacraments Don't you Ken?. Because in knowing is NOW. And
Ken and his masonic cronies don't want to loose control of a good thing A
ken?
Post by Kendall K Down
As no one except a druggie uses such a foolish definition, you're wrong.
This is a classic masonic control system that Ken tries to employ.

So i challenge Ken or another misguided fool who takes the moral high
ground to sit in a small tent and set fire to some shittim just as he has
been instructed to do in the bible and then come back here and tell us
all about this highest of sacraments.

Maybe, just maybe it will have the desired effect that The God of the
Bible wanted it to have and WAKE THIS FUCKING MORON UP before its to late.

Please note, we have here a druggie who cannot even spell "altar"
correctly, giving us a translation of Hebrew - which I'll bet he can't
speak, read or understand - that bears no relationship whatsoever to
any passage in the Bible translated by people who *do* know Hebrew.

Even better, the Bible actually gives us the recipe for the incense
burned in the temple - you can find it in Exodus - and shittim wood is
*not* one of the ingredients.

Just go back to your drug-fuelled fantasies, mate. It's about all your
brain is good for now.

Religious use of cannabis is documented. Its a fact. Millions of
people worldwide for thousands of years. Its not a matter of being
'off your head', in this context cannabis is a mechanism in
ritual...it makes the ritual more powerful. Real religion is ABOUT the
occult Ken (rather than some anti 13/goddess aspect masonicly built
paranoia trip), and as an occult/magic sacrament, cannabis is
excellent. All these words frighten you masonic paradigm 'christian'?
- well they shouldn't because thats what real religion is about -
magic, real time magic, that here in the west is dismissed and blocked
as the 'devil' or insanity or something.

What does frighten me grimus, is that your rantings here demonstrate the
results of the use of cannabis (and of anything/everything else that you
self-abuse on).

You are all the evidence that is needed that cannabis affects the brain.
If your brain was not addled you would be able to see that for yourself.
Since your brain is so affected, we all have to sympathise with you and
your family, though I would hazard a guess that you are the result of
either the genes that your parents passed on, or the environment in
which they raised you in. All very sad.

If, by "magic", you mean things contrary to nature - supernatural or
miraculous - then I might agree with you that "real religion" is
indeed about such things.

Getting out of your head on cannabis or magic mushrooms or whatever is
not magic. It is a simple chemical process, the result of which is
that the subject of that process - the drug user, in other words -
becomes unable to comprehend the world correctly.

Your ravings are the finest example one could wish for of how drug use
results in mental impairment.

contrary to nature?

How can such complex chemical compounds found in nature and created by
God fit the correct chemical receptors in the brain also created by God
be contrary to nature?

Are we not made in the image of God? Are not all things created by God in
nature?

Simple chemical process?

Oh you mean the way complex chemical compounds that have the very same
shape and size of the natural receptors in the brain and lock together by
chance?

unable to comprehend?

How do you KNOW the user is unable to comprehend Ken.

Isn't it your SELF that cannot comprehend ken. are you not just
transferring your lack on comprehension? Unless your offering first hand
experience of drug use that is? Is that what your saying Ken?

That when you took drugs you could not comprehend it? and for you it was
like mental impairment, after all you could only truly say such things in
all honesty if you in fact are admitting that you to have used these
compounds, and this is what you "KNOW"

Otherwise your a telling lies. because without first hand experience your
just a parrot telling something that some other parrot has told you, even
if the person that told you is a doctor. if they have no first hand
experience then they too are telling lies

What your problem is is that there are more people with first hand
experience telling the liars that they are in fact liars and that there
premise is false. Prohibition from the moral high ground can never win
over knowing the truth. No matter how long you stand there calling names.

All it does is prolong your own ignorance and the suffering caused by
such draconian rules of prohibition, made i might add by other ignorant
fools standing on a block of moral high ground.

So unless your going to explain what drugs you have taken and for how
long. Your arguments don't have any value here, your foundation is based
on a false premise. You have no first person real life experience and so
have no valid point.

Simple: there are all sorts of things which are beneficial - for the
proper use. Digitalis, for example, is a splendid treatment for some
forms of heart disease. It is not good for recreation, however.

In the same way marijuana may have medicinal uses; you, however, want
to use it for no other purpose than to reduce your brain power.

1. I am proud to say that I have not taken any drugs except for
medical treatment. That is why I can write English and use logic when
you can't.

2. Demanding that I have "first person real life experience" of

I don't need to crash my car at 80mph into a concrete block to know
that doing so it a very Bad Idea. I just look at people who have done
so and at medical and scientific studies of the results.

In the same way, I don't need to take drugs for recreation to know

personal experience then you have no authority to make such claims, you
are simply relaying 2nd hand information in a parrot fashion.
Sure, just as, in parrot fashion, I taught my children that jumping
off a cliff was very bad for them, that crossing the road without
looking both ways was very bad for them, and so on. We parrots tend to
live long and healthy lives.

What is obvious is that your frightened of your "self" and how "self"
might or might not have to change or reconsider its position should you
go check out the snow cat
Seeing how King Amdo has changed, I have about as much desire to find
out as I have a desire to discover what happens if I crash my car into
a concrete block at 80mph. I've seen crash victims and that's enough
for me.
Post by Telling it how it is.
No one can have a true opinion about honey, if not first having tasted it.
But by your logic you could ?
It depends on what the opinion is supposed to be. If an opinion on the
taste of honey, I agree. If an opinion on the medical and
physiological effects, then I disagree. For the latter it is quite
sufficient to observe what happens to other people who have eaten
honey.

In the same way, I have no opinion of the taste of marijuana nor have
I ever expressed one. I do, however, have very definite opinions on
what marijuana does to those who use it. Look at Amdo.

Perhaps you can explain why druggies like grimus (and others here) feel
the need to justify their self abuse.

If they were at peace with their habit, I would have thought that they
would just quietly get on with it.

Conversely, do they perhaps subliminally want to prompt sufficient
argument that will help then break their habit?

What I want to know is why you want to take drugs at all? They may be
*safer* than cigarettes and alcohol, but they are not *safe*. They
have measurable and deleterious effects on both mind and body, so why

The same reason people climb mountains or run marathons. It's fun.

Don't forget that the moderate use of some drugs can improve health -
aspirin helps prevent heart attacks and strokes, booze is said to improve
your heart (although I don't believe that one). Moderate cannabis use
increases IQ and protects against Alzheimer's and cancer and alleviates
the symptoms of psychosis. Of course, immoderate use of them can be bad
for you.

Not particularly happy comparisons, given that the first is a
dangerous sport with a regular toll of casualties and the second is,
in my opinion, the reserve of the mentally ill. (And I say that having
a daughter-in-law who runs marathons. Definitely loopy.)

The "climb mountains" comparison is always used because it *is* very
dangerous, and yet legal. Some years ago 5 people died during the
Great North Run (heart attacks, should have taken aspirin). The Daily Mail
doesn't get all "think of the children" about these "killer sports ruining
lives" does it? Both marathon running and mountaineering are far more
dangerous than most drugs (including alcohol and tobacco).

Thats easy, its because of ignorant cunts like you try to impose

Thats a fascist ideal that trys to imposes its will on others because it

But this is my point Ken, below you state, "I am proud to say that I
have not taken any drugs except for medical treatment" If this is true,
How would you know that it is not good for recreation? That's Logic
right ?
No, that's stupidity.
I don't need to crash my car at 80mph into a concrete block to know that
doing so it a very Bad Idea. I just look at people who have done so and
at medical and scientific studies of the results.
Yes you do. Because the only true way you would really "know" is in fact
by doing it. I agree that it would seem like a bad idea. But what iam
taking about is "knowing" thats its a bad idea.
Post by Kendall K Down
In the same way, I don't need to take drugs for recreation to know that
they are not a good idea: I just look at King Amdo and, indeed, yourself
- as well as the medical and scientific studies - and that is all I
need. *That* is logic - though I don't expect your drug-addled brain to
recognise it.
You cant use "in the same way here" because its not the same. You do not
"know" that drugs are a bad for you, what you have is an assumption based
on 2nd hand knowledge that they are. And the basis of your information
comes from the very control system that wants to keep prohibition.

Your example of Amdo and my self is only your stupid ego reacting to
having its ass whooped. Just like every other time you use personal
insults based on your inability to stop judging people from your moral
high ground.

What you fail to see in your personal insults and attacks on Amdo is the
reason why you do this. You do this because you dislike his points of
view. And thats because he has the ability to think freely and see the
bigger picture in a selfless way. Where on the other hand you dont.
Because your mind is full of conflicting shit your ego wont let you

and failure to understand. How stupid do i have to show you to be?
Er - you may know what you mean, but when you write "bare" instead of
"bear" - "strip naked" instead of "carry" - whose fault is it if people
do not understand you?
The stupidity, I fear, lies with you.
So that's it is it? The best you can offer up? Petty insults based on
spelling and grammar? Just about sums you up huh?
You mean that pointing out that you do not say what you (claim to)
mean is a "petty insult"?

In which case we'll all join in insulting Palin. And George Bush.

In the same way marijuana may have medicinal uses; you, however, want to
use it for no other purpose than to reduce your brain power.
On the contrary, moderate cannabis use increases IQ:

Results: Current marijuana use was significantly correlated (p < 0.05) in
a dose- related fashion with a decline in IQ over the ages studied. The
comparison of the IQ difference scores showed an average decrease of 4.1
points in current heavy users (p < 0.05) compared to gains in IQ points
for light current users (5.8), former users (3.5) and non-users (2.6).

Why am I irrisitably reminded of "lies, damn lies and statistics"?
This is the bit you didn't quote:

==========
Interpretation: Current marijuana use had a negative effect on global
IQ score only in subjects who smoked 5 or more joints per week. A
negative effect was not observed among subjects who had previously
been heavy users but were no longer using the substance. We conclude
that marijuana does not have a long-term negative impact on global
intelligence. Whether the absence of a residual marijuana effect would
also be evident in more specific cognitive domains such as memory and
attention remains to be ascertained.
===========

If you ask anyone who knows a marijuana user, it is precisely in the
areas of memory and attention that the long-term effects of use are
shown.

Post by Telling it how it is.
Post by Kendall K Down
If, by "magic", you mean things contrary to nature - supernatural or
miraculous - then I might agree with you that "real religion" is indeed
about such things.
Getting out of your head on cannabis or magic mushrooms or whatever is
not magic. It is a simple chemical process, the result of which is that
the subject of that process - the drug user, in other words - becomes
unable to comprehend the world correctly.
Your ravings are the finest example one could wish for of how drug use
results in mental impairment.
Ken Down
contrary to nature?
How can such complex chemical compounds found in nature and created by
God fit the correct chemical receptors in the brain also created by God
be contrary to nature?
Are we not made in the image of God? Are not all things created by God in
nature?
Simple chemical process?
Oh you mean the way complex chemical compounds that have the very same
shape and size of the natural receptors in the brain and lock together by
chance?
unable to comprehend?
How do you KNOW the user is unable to comprehend Ken.
Isn't it your SELF that cannot comprehend ken. are you not just
transferring your lack on comprehension? Unless your offering first hand
experience of drug use that is?  Is that what your saying Ken?
That when you took drugs you could not comprehend it? and for you it was
like mental impairment, after all you could only truly say such things in
all honesty if you in fact are admitting that you to have used these
compounds, and this is what you "KNOW"
Otherwise your a telling lies. because without first hand experience your
just a parrot telling something that some other parrot has told you, even
if the person that told you is a doctor. if they have no first hand
experience then they too are telling lies
What your problem is is that there are more people with first hand
experience telling the liars that they are in fact liars and that there  
premise is false. Prohibition from the moral high ground can never win
over knowing the truth. No matter how long you stand there calling names.
All it does is prolong your own ignorance and the suffering caused by
such draconian rules of prohibition, made i might add by other ignorant
fools standing on a block of moral high ground.
So unless your going to explain what drugs you have taken and for how
long. Your arguments don't have any value here, your foundation is based
on a false premise. You have no first person real life experience and so
have no valid point.

and thats the truth.
Be aware that Ken is a very very strait mainstream 'christian'
individual. Thus I would say where he is coming from is the ritual
abuse derived masonic type imitative 'christian' thing. Thats why hes
so materialistic and anti the magic of the universe(s). It would be
laughable if it were for the fact that it takes ritual abuse anti
magic to make people like Ken. You're going to hell, Ken, as I said
before, if you continue to hold onto this reactionary mindset. Jesus
was a hippy anarchist - a very very way out channel to the people of
auspicious consciousness. Like a very powerful Indian Sadu. Yes you
don't neccessarily need cannabis or any other pyscotropic plant/drug
to increase the power of ones mind to be able to do this...to be able
to channel communal consciousness. Potentially many have this ability.
I'd done it myself at some rave parties, kinda picked up on the trip
in India, and from eco warrior trip also. Many can do it...and yes
the mainstream western order and masonic paradigm 'christians' like
Ken do channel the negative ritual abuse senario which can send people
skitazphrenic at its most extreme...thus the sad idiot pushing the
mental health thing. Scum as I said before, scum with scary ritual
abuse karma that is a inherent block to magic, i.e. natural forces ,
elemental forces, and fixes people in materialism and ego, rather than
positive aspect of the sacred Mother Earth in particular being
incorporated into their consciousness and reality by auspicious ritual
and natural magic. I would say that people should only trake cannabis
occassional for the real revelatory effect. It should be legal and
free (non commerical). Extasy should be legal and free, and people
should really take it not more than once a month. Likewise LSD.
Setting is important for these drugs, and that could be organised
easily in a legal setting. I think you'd need to 'legalise' free rave
parties also - pull back the whole demonisation and supression of
these happenings. Probably best to leave cocaine and speed alone. On
the other hand there are very good arguments to legalise (by my tribal
law decree!) all drugs in a free market senario, legal for driving
motor vehicle etc also, for reasons to do with freedom of
consciousness (not neccessarily freedom of action)...like you would
have in the old UK free Festivals, and it worked ok there because
people were generally connected and sound and not out of control,.
manic and dangerous. Of all these realities Ken has no idea what-so-
ever. Hes never lived!

It's a Catch 22 situation, Ken. The rambling and rantings that you here
respond to demonstrate just how extensive the damage cannabis has doing
to grumus' brain.

The irony is, the poor sod just cannot see it because of the influence
that cannabis has had on his cognitive abilities.

Oh I know: you know it, I know it, Amdo will never know it, but by
emphasising it we may - with luck - make some lurker think twice
before he accepts that reefer.

So you dismiss traditional Hindu religious use out of hand then Ken?
Religious use of cannabis is documented. Its a fact. Millions of
people worldwide for thousands of years. Its not a matter of being
'off your head', in this context cannabis is a mechanism in
ritual...it makes the ritual more powerful. Real religion is ABOUT the
occult Ken (rather than some anti 13/goddess aspect masonicly built
paranoia trip), and as an occult/magic sacrament, cannabis is
excellent. All these words frighten you masonic paradigm 'christian'?
- well they shouldn't because thats what real religion is about -
magic, real time magic, that here in the west is dismissed and blocked
as the 'devil' or insanity or something.
If, by "magic", you mean things contrary to nature - supernatural or
miraculous - then I might agree with you that "real religion" is
indeed about such things.
Getting out of your head on cannabis or magic mushrooms or whatever is
not magic. It is a simple chemical process, the result of which is

Oh absolutely. A wonderful, admirable system that burns widows alive
and condemns half the population to untouchable status. Gee! I wonder
how Christianity ever made headway against such a splendid culture and
religion?

Or does one have to be out of one's head on bhang to truly appreciate
the finer qualities of the thing?
