Go...Personally I think that is between you and God. God created Marijuana while he created the earth, therefore it has a purpose. Deciphering that purpose and its intended application is the tough part of it. I know that I have felt very depressed in my life and Marijuana has helped me overcome some challenges and center my mind and heart in a way where I could see the problems which I was needing to overcome. That being said, the darkness in my soul at the time was made clearer through my use. I do not personally believe marijuana is bad at all. I believe that it is misconstrued and feared in our world because of a lack of understanding and irresponsibility of its use. When I read peoples opinions on marijuana who have not gone through what I have or even used the plant in any way it really seems silly the things they will say. Marijuana can do much good, but It can also do much harm in the wrong hands and when used inappropriately or in a manner that halts progression in your life. You see, I believe its not the plant that’s evil, It’s the individuals who use it to accomplish selfish and evil purposes. Many of these evil abuses stem directly from the Prohibition of the plant. Marijuana really can be a blessing. People are going to hate my opinion, but I know it’s true in my heart. By the way, I am a Latter Day Saint, and I’m not judging you or advising you. I’m only sharing my experience. I do not smoke Marijuana at this time in my life.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568072161793472490.post-58283723007906139862012-12-06T12:04:03.280-09:002012-12-06T12:04:03.280-09:00Blessed are the peacemakers.

Cannab...Blessed are the peacemakers. (Matthew 5:9)<br /><br />Cannabis was used 12 ways: clothing, paper, cord, sails, fishnet, oil, sealant, incense, food, and in ceremony, relaxation and medicine. <br /><br />A healing plant. On either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare 12 manner of fruits, and yielding her fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. (Revelations 22:1-2)<br /><br /><br />For so the Lord said unto me, "I will take my rest and I will consider in my dwelling place like a clear heat upon herbs. For afore harvest, when the bud is perfect and the sour grape is ripening in the flower, he shall cut off the sprigs with pruning hooks and take away and cut down the branches."

Therefore it necessarily follows that He intended for us to use it for the (psychoactive) properties He gave it--and this intended use could only be medicinal, as the only alternative (for the psychoactive properties) would be recreational and contrary to His will.El Zorillonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568072161793472490.post-15389811769519551092012-07-21T15:49:06.444-08:002012-07-21T15:49:06.444-08:00www.facebook.com/LDSCL Latter Day Sasints (Morm...www.facebook.com/LDSCL Latter Day Sasints (Mormons) for Cannabis Liberation!

If someone suffers not of their own free will, cancer, Parkinson's, arthritis, depression etc why as a compassionate and CHARITABLE member of our church not allow cannabis (NOT BY SMOKING) BUT rather administered by eatables or vapor. This is NO DIFFERENT than taking aloe vera for a burn etc.., you get the point!! Honestly, who out there member or not knows someone that is suffering physically, mentally etc and is on some type of controlled narcotic!!!! Remember something here.., "We believe in following the laws of our lands!" WE believe that we can go to doctor get diagnosed take the prescription to a Pharmacy or state licensed dispensary and obtain there MEDICINE!! Any med can be addictive? Is POP, OR SUGAR addictive? I am a worthy member of this church and anyone that is JUDGMENTAL about what everyone is taking is absurd! Is any Bishop going to tell a member that he or she should stop taking their prescribed medicine!!!

In some states it is illegal. It would be inconsistant with any pollicy, church or otherwise to approve marijuana untill it was legal every where. Coffee is against the word of wisdom. Not caffeine.

Luckily, I've had not one but two doctors, ironically both LDS(one was a former bishop), tell me that they would never consider medical use of cannabis to go against church doctrine or principles. In fact, my current bishop sees no problems with it either, so long as I adhere to the "medical use only" aspect. There may have been a time when I was much, much younger where recreational use was fine by my terms. Now that I'm "older" my usage is far from recreational. I get the feeling that this is one of those issues that the church leaves up to those at the head of congregations. Bishops, stake presidents, etc. But from this mormon's point of view, medical marijuana has saved my sanity. God put it on this Earth for a purpose. Thankfully I discovered that purpose.SoCalRichnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568072161793472490.post-39902654434205318312011-08-07T11:59:39.317-08:002011-08-07T11:59:39.317-08:00In reference to "graceforgrace" The reas...In reference to "graceforgrace" The reason that I would use medical marijuana would be for ongoing 24/7 chronic sciatic nerve pain in which i have tried all the current medicines and surgeries and have found no relief.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568072161793472490.post-5609738447572163832011-04-15T22:05:17.315-08:002011-04-15T22:05:17.315-08:00I don't think there should be a problem with u...I don't think there should be a problem with using marijuana for medicinal purposes...the trick is using it for medicinal purposes and not for recreational purposes.
