I can't get a good signal to watch it. As of this moment I would say that no plant is evil. Perhaps smoking is not the healthiest way to go?!? If It was not outlawed perhaps futher studies could determine the pro's and con's of THC for people. I am all about the medical use of any plant in existence, especially for people in chronic pain.

Cannabis is not necessarily evil. There are good uses for other parts of the plant, including hemp fiber that can be used for fabrics. There are ways to use other parts of the plant as food that do not contain the psychoactive drugs. And, there are valid medicinal uses for weed. It can be used to treat glaucoma, and it can treat some of the side effects from cancer chemo drugs. As a psychiatric drug, it is less dangerous than the pharmaceuticals that are manufactured and usually contain fluoride (which ruins the pineal gland along with your brain and liver).
However, abusing this substance is a horrible idea. Itself, "less dangerous" means there is still a measure of danger. Weed is not as safe as magnesium. You risk brain and liver damage, plus the smoke is damaging to your lungs (tobacco smoke is even worse). You get stoned, you are more likely to get into an accident. Your thinking is tampered with. Just a "feel good" drug that causes harm in the long run--preferable to prescription drugs is not good enough if neither are preferable to no drugs. Not to mention, smoking weed makes you vulnerable to the angels attacking you, often through thinking processes that can lead you right back into a bad religion. (The prescription drugs are even worse in this aspect). As with a blood transfusion, smoking weed indiscriminately is quite stupid (at least you are not wasting weed that could have saved lives, since there is plenty for those cancer patients that need it to prevent wasting away totally).

And the leaves of the trees are for the curing of the nations, (or something).
Theres a lot of folk about who claim cannabis is a miracle drug that along with many serious disorders can also cure cancer.
Not by smoking but by ingesting cannabis oil or Hemp oil, thats not Hemp seed oil by the way which I take every day as its about the highest source of Omega 3 I understand, but doesnt contain the TFC or whatever the good bit is called.
One of the reasons why this otherwise free mircale drug is so demonised, is a lot of money would be lost by the pharmaceutical trade.

CBD is way better for than the THC in cannabis so my recomendation is get cannabis that has a higher CBN.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabinoid
Cannabidiol (CBD) is not particularly psychoactive in and of itself, and was thought not to affect the psychoactivity of THC. [14] However, recent evidence shows that smokers of cannabis with a higher CBD/THC ratio were less likely to experience schizophrenia-like symptoms. [15] This is supported by psychological tests, in which participants experience less intense psychotic-like effects when intravenous THC was co-administered with CBD (as measured with a PANSS test). [16] Cannabidiol has little affinity forCB 1 and CB 2 receptors but acts as an indirect antagonist of cannabinoid agonists. [17] Recently it was found to be an antagonist at the putative new cannabinoid receptor, GPR55, a GPCR expressed in thecaudate nucleus and putamen. [18] Cannabidiol has also been shown to act as a 5-HT 1A receptoragonist, [19] an action that is involved in its antidepressant, [20] [21] anxiolytic, [21] [22] and neuroprotective [23] [24] effects.

I have taken somewhere around 50-100 ayahuasca(vine of the dead) trips, and after taking this shaman drink i find that high concentrations of THC make me a tad bit paranoid and have unreal feeling of worrying about this or that.
If I stick to a indica strain of cannabis the high is more mild and less confrontational of my shadow repressions, were as a predominate sativa strain make me more prone to face repressions I have tucked away in my shadow.

Very interesting video. Interesting about the cbd thc balance, the cbd being antiparanoiac. As well, how they made resin or oil from heating up finely ground plants. Seems, they used alchohol as well, in the mix. Oral intake would spare the lungs.
Looking at some other mj youtubes, it seems that a few people have cured, or put into remission their skin cancers w hemp oil. Thanks.

They are working on breeding and extraction cannabis for CBD. This site has lots of info on it.
Interesting findings about CBD and turning off a gene that causes breast and other types of cancers to metastasize.

A certain marijuana compound known as cannabidiol (CBD) can treat schizophrenia as well as antipsychotic drugs, with far fewer side effects, according to a preliminary clinical trial.

I am marked for using medicinal marijuana, even though everyone denys I am. I decided to use it for chronic pain about 9 months ago, got the elders to "approve". I was living in a apartment complex with about 4 other witness families and they all said they were open minded about its uses. Shortly after this, I stopped being invited to get togethers, feeding the speaker, lunch after service. I was fine with that cause Id rather get high. Then came remarks and conversations from witnesses out in service comparing marijuana usage to homosexuality and murder. Then I started growing a couple plants. I never told anyone about these plants. A couple families knew because another brother also did this medicine, but I never advertise it. One day I am out in the garage doing work and I see a witness come walking through the backyard obvisouly looking for these plants that everyone is gosiping about. They think they are keeping the congregation clean. So this is a dont ask dont tell as far as the elders are concerned. Im sure its for legal reasons that they say dont do it. I am very liberal and I never really cared what they think. I am irrated that people have told me I am a kingdom hall friend and that I would never be invited to their homes. I actually think the medicine has helped me realize that things arent the way they seem. Opened my mind.
