either way, I am not worried.
If one of the billions of Gods that man has believed in over the last few millions years happens to be true, and if I would be tortured for not worshiping it, then I am good as I wouldn’t worship that under any circumstances whatsoever anyway.
I am not judging any particular god, I am judging what people say about the supposedly "holy" being they happen to believe in.
Not about to worship what they are describing, even if it was true.( in fact particularly if it was true )

who gave u the right to judge others?

Oh darn, there goes another country Republicans can't visit anymore.

The German government is about to reintroduce a ban on bestiality, after pressure from animal welfare groups.

Who gave it to you?
Constantly looking for trouble- if you test a person to ignore their higher nature, watch out!
They just might.
It's cute on the Internet and no harm done but I have to tell you it's a reckless habit.
It's ironic to see a blind man in sunglasses.
It's absurd to see the leg less at Foot Locker.
But to serve a fool his comeuppance- that is something to behold.
Too bad you're never in on it.
I guess some babies have to touch the stove more than once to learn.

I suppose the words we choose and their subjective meaning makes all the difference.
I don't want to submit to meteors and solar flares, or hurricanes and earthquakes. And the claims of nature, large and small, from microbes to hordes of ignorant dumbasses all around- some problems and the challenges they present are a little beyond my scale.
How can you not describe it?
And yet we don't confuse the menu for the meal.
You're good, man.
Stay wakeful my friends.

well he is right you did kinda miss the point.

we all know that full legalization isnt really a reality anywhere..

I think I said decriminalization.....why dont you check my post?

By comparison, other posters were giving me the impression I was difficult to understand. But I feel ready to address any flaws which may exist in my expressions.
(there is a lot to know)
I think Riccardo might be taking things too seriously- I mean, think what ever you want. Nobody's freakin' stopping you- obviously.
I'm just playing. As far as convincing someone of the merit in one's beliefs, it doesn't seem like he can convince anyone but himself. Even then, he's a little shakey.
But go ahead Riccardo- reinvent the wheel. Fly that kite Ben Franklin. Put two keys on it and do it even better!
I have to recharge my phone.

Angus Jones said he felt drawn to God after a tough time in his life when his parents were going through a divorce and he experimented with drugs.

And Kim Jong Un is the sexiest man alive.
Having a sense of humor could go a long way in helping to separate what is sincere and what is a joke.

[Dumb Fond]

But then you have that as a problem.
I wonder, was it the divorce or the drugs that brought him to God.
My guess is, a bit of both- that's an old story.

[T Jones]

his boy has been sitting to close to the curch or someone in it or the other way around?

Angus Jones has apologized to his "Two and a Half Men" colleagues for publicly trashing the hit sitcom, "one of the most significant experiences" in his life.

The 19-year-old has played Jon Cryer's onscreen son Jake Harper but has openly criticized the show, insisting that it's full of "filth."

That's not a cannabis problem. Try coffee.

These are almost direct quotes from the mouth of Rush Limbaugh

This is the typical paranoia and hyperbole that characterize the daily nine hours of right-wing talk radio we get from Limbaugh, Hannity, Beck, Sussman, etc., along with the additional nonsense that Obama is a foreign-born, radical leftist, socialist, Muslim sympathizer.

Ummm, but Obama is.

The Republican's elected offcials in Washington D.C. haven't got over the butKicking they got in 2012.

Taking it to the limit, GOP, Republican idiots in Washington D.C. have decided to get side tracked and pick on a FEMALE rather than deal with the debt crises.

<quoted text>I'm for it being legal but there is a lot of false information about it. More teens enter treatment each year with marijuana as the main substance that they abused. In 2004, 64% of teens were admitted for treatment for marijuana as their main drug of choice vs. 36% of all other substances including alcohol. Marijuana is addictive, as it meets the criteria for substance dependence
In a study reported by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, even a moderate dose of marijuana was shown to impair driving performance, since it affects alertness, concentration, perception coordination and reaction time – essential skills required for safe driving. Researchers also found that 17%(1 in 5) of crash victims under the age of 18 tested positive for marijuana.
What did the High times study find?
Researchers have found that heavy marijuana use may be especially problematic during teens’ peak learning years, when the brain is still developing, since smoking pot can impair your ability to concentrate and retain information. This can cause poor academic performance. You might think you’re doing well in school – but you’ll never know if smoking pot is inhibiting your true academic potential. http://www.youtube.com/watch...

The main reason that there are so many people in treatment for cannabis is that if caught with a small-medium amount of cannabis, the court will usually offer a diversion program (ie..."treatment"), rather than jail time. Most of these "patients" are not going into treatment voluntarily. Also, the stats for drivers who have THC in their system are somewhat misleading as they show are who has consumed THC in the past 30 days, rather that the past 24-72 hours with other substances such as alcohol, cocaine, and meth.
I'm not saying that cannabis is a cure-all or isn't bad for you, but it is also not the "devil weed" that it was once made out to be.
