Well, first let's consider the alternatives.
The legal drugs are, of course, tobacco, alcohol, and over-the-counter pain killers.
These drugs and they are drugs are legal for the government sanctions them and then levels an excise tax against them and all are happy. They get richer and you die of too much cigarette smoke after you give them your money. Pretty picture?
Almost 600, 000 people die of cancer in the United States a year alone.
In contrast to marijuana smokers, the death toll is far reduced.
“There’s been no history of any verified reports of death from cannabis ever,” said Dr. Alan Shackelford, a high-profile, Harvard-trained Colorado physician who evaluates individuals for medical marijuana prescriptions. He questioned the medical examiner’s diagnosis when interviewed about this case.
“Cannabis can cause an increased heart rate, and there’s a possibility that it could cause a problem with someone with pre-existing heart disease – for example, somebody with an elevated heart rate. But there’s no known dose of cannabis that could kill a human.”
This does not mean that marijuana is not harmful, but it does show that it is safer than cigarette smoking and far less dangerous.
The next legal drug is alcohol, the silent killer. Alcohol is the fourth bigger killer of people in the world. It is a slow death of attrition. And you are ruining your liver in the process.
They looked at the body of a dead woman who had been smoking marijuana for over 28 years and found no damage to any inner organs. This is not to say that marijuana doesn't affect you physically, it is saying it has an effect but is not the cause of failing organs.
There are dangers to smoking marijuana and I suggest a person be at least 18 to smoke for it could interfere with his natural process of what he will do in life.
And there are other factors about marijuana that would make one consider why they want to take it, for it can be psychological addicting and time reference and space can be altered.
But for the most part, smoking marijuana is far better than what the Government tries and sells us. I like the Vapor Gun but the metal is really bad for the lungs.
Though marijuana is used for spiritual reasons by some, I still recommend one be at least 18 before indulging. A child needs time to be a child and a teenager needs times to grow as a teenager with little external stimulus as possible. Of course, we are talking teenagers and this is just not going to happen, but it is the starting part. Everything in moderation but your spiritual growth. This is a win-win situation and condition of which you can't fail.
People are going to drink, smoke and do drugs no matter what I or you say. That really is not the point. The point is whether the person is being DESTRUCTIVE OR CONSTRUCTIVE with his life and therefore what he does with his life.
A constructive person will take fewer drugs, use them as a reward for work done or for meditation. He is concern about what goes into his body and how much.
A destructive person may drink all night and get up in the morning to get in line to hit the bar at 6:00 am.
Knowing yourself or knowing your child will help you determine if smoking marijuana is good for you or not.
As a parent, I would let my child make his own decision when he is 18 but would not curify him if he did indulge in marijuana smoking only if everything else is good in his life and he is striving to be all he or she can be. Any activity or action that impedes this growth would be eliminated marijuana smoking included.
