and you called me uneducated and juvenile? WOW

well, i came back on this thread today to apologize because i was in a bad mood when i posted my last comment and i was unnecessarily sarcastic. but i came across this and i just wanted to ask, what exactly do you perceive uneducated about my comment? and of course the sarcasm was uncalled for but i wouldn't have called it juvenile, but that's my opinion.

so what exactly is uneducated about it? did i read a fake article about lowering the drinking age? hmmm let's see, is this a fake thread about an issue that doesn't really exist? or is the other thread about prostitution irrelevant and no one is really considering legalizing it?

you see because, i would assume that your saying i'm uneducated, would mean that my cause for concern is based on ignorance of the issues....so please explain...

nope nothing uneducated but kind of juvenile in your comparison of weed being legal  and pimping out kids  i never said you were uneducated   you said i was uneducated and juvenile   legalising weed has nothing to do with morals   i have plenty of morals  and so do other people i know with jobs houses cars kids  everyday people who happen to smoke weed  and for what its worth  i havnt smoked weed in a long time  but to me having it illegal is just wrong and petty

granted smoking weed to pimping children is a big jump. but i think my concern is legitimate when you think back to even 50 years ago, the things that were considered immoral and illegal. so, as time has gone on and people have pushed the moral envelope continuously....more and more has become acceptable. and along with the accepting of little things here and there also came, more crime, more sexually transmitted diseases, more teen pregnancies, more homeless people, more divorces,...and the list goes on.

right now legalizing pimping children sounds absolutely ridiculous and quite frankly disgusting but since everyone's morals are based on what society as a whole deems acceptable...who is to say this won't be the case in the future? in my opinion, the only thing that keeps everything from falling into moral chaos is the many christians who fight back to preserve the values that strike chords with them.

you can disagree with that but that's my view point.

Everywhere prostituition is legal sexually transmitted diseases are down. why? because its bad for bussiness. prohibition created more crime. marijuana cocaine were legal at one time  but when you make it illegal it creates more crime  this is just the way it is. if you make weed legal  the crime stats would go down. 

As for my statement when you reffered to me as uneducated and juvenile  Perscription drugs are so much more a scourge on society than weed ever could be. Pharmaceutical companies and doctors and pharmacies  all make huge amounts of money  getting people addicted or physicly dependant on drugs.  Whens the last time you watched the news and heard of a celebrity going to rehab for thier weed addiction? 

I do not base my morals on anything society deems acceptable  nor do i base my morals on what christians deem acceptable  i have a mind i know whats right i know whats wrong  and that is how i live my life

i agree about prescription drugs. people abuse themselves with all sorts of things, that doesn't mean making currently illegal things legal makes it all better.

and who gave you that mind to determine right from wrong?

you didn't answer the question. how do you explain your ability to reason? where did your "mind" come from? saying you came from a monkey does not answer the question.

All i know is i was born with a brain and over time my brain developed and voila i had the ability to reason and think and learn, quite an amazing thing the human brain.

Where did you get your ability to reason and where did your mind come from? i think i know your answer  and shame on me for biting lol   :peace:

well your brain is physical, doctors can see your brain and touch it, run tests on it....but they don't know your thoughts, they can't see them or touch them. they could take your brain right out your head and cut it open and would they be able to poke around in there and say "oh that's were muush thought about smoking pot in 1985" NO

of course you knew where i was going and you can't explain it....ALL YOU KNOW IS...you were born with a brain. why are christians chided for not knowing why they believe what they believe but the shoe is on the other foot and you can't explain to me how it is your capable of being a conscious thinking person?? i guess it's because you have faith in evolution...you don't know why you believe it just "feels right"

ok well, i won't continue on because it's gotten off topic but i think i made my point.

And back on subject  have you ever smoked weed?

big difference between use and abuse

DMAL just became my favorite person of this thread. People abuse what is legal and illegal. It doesn't matter.  The guy down the street who is a junkie is going to be a junkie no matter what. For people who know their limitations, whether it be alcohol, weed, sex, prostitution, etc. etc. it would be a big leap. People who are going to abuse it will no matter what. We might as well save taxpayers money and at least decriminalize it, if not legalize it.
