In the Holy Bible 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.
1:31 And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good…
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. God permits us to consume all plants with seeds. Surely the Creator even gave us poison sumac and would not want us to consume it, but no government should have the right to prohibit the cultivation or consumption of that plant either.
Cannabis has become one of the most widespread and diversified of plants. It is a 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. Hemp seeds have been used as food for centuries. The seeds have been used as food for centuries. The oil contained in the seeds was once used for lighting and soap and is now sometimes employed in the manufacture of varnish, linoleum, and artists’ paints.
The cannabis or marijuana plant is one of the oldest psychoactive plants known to humanity. It is botanically classified as a member of the family Cannabaceae and the genus Cannabis. The chemical compounds responsible for the intoxicating and medicinal effects are found mainly in a sticky golden resin exuded from the flowers on the female plants.
The most famous early users in the history of cannabis were the Hindus of India and Nepal. Soma, a drug mentioned in early Hindu texts as an intoxicating hallucinogen, may have been a reference to cannabis.
Spreading with the Indo-Aryan culture from India outwards, cannabis was introduced to the Assyrians (Iraq/Syria), Scythians (Eurasian steppe), and Thracians/Dacians (Greece and the Balkans) in the 3rd and 2nd millennia BCE.
Ancient Shamans used cannabis to induce a state of trance. The shamans of the latter culture were called kapnobatai “those who walk on smoke/clouds.” They used burning cannabis flowers to induce a state of trance. This practice is believed to have been inherited by Greek oracles and worshippers, including members of the cult of Dionysus.
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.
Studies have been done and the doctors agree...Modern science has uncovered additional benefits from cannabis, including the inhibition of cancer cell growth and the reduction of memory impairment in the elderly. On the negative side, cannabis use has been found to correlate with anxiety, but there is debate as to whether its role is causative or merely correlative. There are harmful chemicals in marijuana smoke, so patients consuming the drug for medical purposes often do so orally or by using a vaporizer.
Samuel R. Caldwell Americas was the first victim of marijuana prohibition…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 the drug, beginning with the Marihuana Tax Act of 1937. This was followed up by subsequent legislation in 1951 and 1971 (the Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Act of 1971).
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 revered and used for thousands of years for: Food, Fiber, Paper, Fuel, Medicine, Healing, Spirituality and yes, Relaxation.
