Guest guest Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 Toadstools, flies and snakes all have a purpose. That was my point, God created marijuana for a purpose. Your point is what?

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 My point is that we need to use judgement, while toadstools [a word often used for poisonous mushrooms] may resemble yummy and healthy mushrooms, they are not good for food, and flies help to break down rotting dead flesh but are not good to eat, and snakes [i'm sure they have some purpose] I stay away from them usually. Also My original post was in response to an inquiry to my post saying modern Phama has taken a good remedy like willow bark and turned it into Aspirin, to which someone replied they needed to take ASA every day, it was to that I said willow bark was probably not as damaging as ASA, being natural God made. Instead of responding in context you ambushed me.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 ok,, we have people who agree and who don't agree.. that is everyone's choice...(Just keep it all friendly).. The only thing I will say is that it is a plant, and has medicinal qualities... but like anything else in life.. it gets abused.. just like people, alcohol, herbs, animals etc. If mankind could and would act responsibly as a whole, we would have this plant available just like sudafed or aspirin.

All my friends were quiet, well behaved girls. Yes I know, boring youth but hey, I'm still here, and some of those partiers I used to know in high school are gone now.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 AMEN Sister!!!!!!! I used to be a RN at Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo, New York. That's the place where I actually learned about medical marijuana first. In a cancer institute. It really does work for them and it worked for taking the pain away for me so it helps in more than one way. I just hope that legalizing it won't turn it into a monster by changing it too much. I'd prefer it to what I have to take now.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010  I was wrong this morning with some of the names. The main, #1 name was Hearst! His paper industry depended on trees and not the easy, renewable cannabis. He had a corner on almost all the paper producing industry.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Personally, I think marijuana should be treated like cigarettes and alcohol. No, I don't use it, but do wish it were legal here for at least medical use. Course, I think all drugs and meds should be taxed and available OTC, with no prescription. This would take what are now prescription drugs down in cost, so more people could afford them. Also, these drugs and meds could be imported into the US a lot easier. After all, a good percentage of our current meds, come from Europe. So why can't we order them from the same company now?

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Most snakes are nutritious as well. Not sure of the flies, but I love frog legs and frogs eat flies. I think some types of flies actually pollinate flowers. Then flies also lay eggs in dung and road kill. That helps get rid of dung and road kill the natural way. Toadstools grow on decaying organic material. I've been getting one to two truck loads of mushroom compost a year for my garden containers and wood enclosures. While I really doubt the mushroom compost came from toadstools. It might have. In any case, I am pretty sure that toadstools provide lots of benefits to humankind.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 The point is of course that we need to be discerning as to what we do in the form of ingestion or injection. The things flies pollinate tend to be stinky.
