In the Book Of Genesis: 1:29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for food.
So, if the Creator tells us that He has given us herb bearing seeds then no man should have the right to prohibit any of them from us.
Cannabis has become one of the most widespread and diversified of plants. It grows as weed and cultivated plant all over the world in a variety of climates and soils.
Hemp fiber has been used for cloth and paper for centuries and was the most important source of rope until the development of synthetic fibers.
Early users in the history of cannabis would have also been attracted to the plant by its positive medical properties, including the alleviation of pain, nausea, depression, and as an agent for encouraging the appetite.
Modern science has uncovered additional benefits from cannabis, including the inhibition of cancer cell growth and the reduction of memory impairment in the elderly.
After cannabis was used freely for thousands of years, a major change in the history of cannabis came in the early 20th century, when prohibitionists in the United States succeeded in getting the government to criminalize it, beginning with the Marihuana Tax Act of 1937.
The leading figure in the criminalization of cannabis was conservative Harry Jacob Anslinger, who linked the drug to moral decline and even spontaneous murder.
But the truth is that the ancient Cannabis plant has been used and revered for thousands of years for: Food, Fiber, Paper, Fuel, Medicine, Healing, Spirituality and yes, Relaxation.
Marijuana Prohibition and the Drug War have needlessly destroyed countless lives with no benefit to mankind.
