Have you ever lived with someone who uses marijuana??? Just wondering if you have any idea what is like to live with someone who has no will to work be involved with their family or life in general. And marijuana almost always leads to harder drugs. And criminal activity. I have lived the whole thing in vivid detail.

yes sin is everywhere and growing but you can't compare the bible belt south and even the midwest to SF please!!!!

Why not? We have our fair share of meth heads, gay people, promiscuous people. Sin is everywhere in strong numbers.

S.F is CLOSEST thing to Amsterdam in the USA. that is what i was attempting to convey. It is very quickly heading in the direction
in fact, the leaders of S.F are probably the closest thing to communistic as you'll find anywhere in america- would you like to see the rest of America lke this and ultimatley like or models in Eroupe ?

I have several friends who have used marijuana extensively. Some are slackers, others work very hard. Some still use it, some used it for a period and then stopped. I have not known many that have went on to harder drugs after using it. I have also had the same experience with people that drank alcohol. More likely than not, the people that are slackers were going to be slackers whether they took it or not. It's just the way they are.

As i said, sin is spreading and it's getting worse with every generation. so should we just cave in and put our stamp of approval on it because we can't stop it ???

shall we legalize polgamy and gay marriage too - It's their business isn't ti ?

Pretty much. If we let the government tell us what is morally acceptable and what is not, what are you going to do when the government differs with you? They shouldn't legislating morality.

Well, having lived with it, and having done extensive research on the subject, I respectfully disagree.
