    From the gospel of st. Anchovie

    (4:20) "And He said unto them,'Take this and smoke it, for this is my silliness. For verily I say unto you tis by the grace of silliness that we are delivered from the glenched sphvyncter of the self-rightous'.

    And they took of it and did puff, each in his turn. And lo, they saw that it was the kynd.

    And the Son of Ja continuied,"For the sphvyncter dwelleth in dark places and comes forth naught but to spew vile things upon the earth.

    'Therefore I say unto you, be not like unto the sphvyncter, out of which no good thing can come..."

    But at that moment did the King of Kynd take notice of a certain one of His deciples, Bogardus by name, that he did hoard the sacred Bong, and passeth it not, but did toke upon it a time, times, and half a time.

    And He said unto him, "Woe unto thee Bogardus, for have I not tryed to teach you 'kick down to others as you would have them kick down to you'?

    And Bogardus was sore ashamed, and did tremble with a great paranoia. And the Prince of Speelf said unto him, "Evermore shalt thy name be spoken in parents basements with dread and loathing, as he that hideth nugs and leaves none but resin for the sons of the most high.

    And then did the twelve raise up in furious annoyance to smiteth the ass of Bogardus. And he fled from among them, to dwell evermore in the land of the Swhagnostics, where there was no kynd to be had, but only shake."

    (Anchovie 4:20)

    There are no referances to weed in the bible because weed is not native to the eastern medditeranean (sp) region, Weed comes from central and south America generally, though it is found natively in other regions, none of them even close to northern africa, the middle east, or south eastern europe.

    INCORRECT. Cannabis was known through much of the old world, as it originated in the Himalayan Mountains region. From there it went down into India, and the Scythians brought it West to the Black Sea region. Greeks used marijuana in a powerful drink when worshipping Dionysis (the god of drink, anyways, i think thats the name) and it was often used by Muslims, the hookah was invented for it (tobacco, being a New World plant, was used later).

    There are mentions of a "kenna bosom" in the Hebrew bible, which resembles "cannabis" greatly. The word was changed to "sweet calamus" in most translations, but many believe it originally did refer to cannabis. It was listed as an ingredient to the holy inscence, which makes sense. The fumes of the inscence "pleased God", right? Well, it would stand to reason the inscence had psychoactive ingredients in it, as was common in early religions (and still is in shamanistic traditions), and this is why it was "pleasing to God" and used in religious ceremony: it brought one closer to God.

    --Damn Trippin! :) -Yer the best! -I can see the rational thought that led you to your conclusions about the inscence. -I bet they straight up smoked hash! -And weed. -There was no government need to demonize it, no competion. -I bet they got their taxes from it. -Back in the pre-petrolium days. -I bet it weaved a good basket too. -Heh Heh...

    Herb is Herb it is not 'weed' and JAH gave herb for the use of man

    please try to refrain from using negative terms for Herb- i.e., Pot, Dope, Wacky, Weed,
    try to use the word Herb......as we can speak this into existance.........it starts with you and the words that come from your mouth
    also Dandy, Collie, Flower, I-shence, etc.

    I have also read that it may have been used in annointing oil by the early Judeans and then phased out over the centuries. I am almost positive that it was not used in the chrism for annointing after baptism by early Christians. Although I think they occasionally added frankenscense, and other essential oils, I have never read anything about cannibas. The ingrediants and the oil itself were extremely symbolic and have been commented on heavily by early church fathers. Some of the tracts on baptism, esp. the annointing (the point where a catechumin actually becomes a Christian), are the best preserved and some of the best reading of early Christian literature.

    I can see how callin it "weed" can portray it in a bad light. I didnt mean it that way and Im gonna be more concious of how I call it. At home I do usually callem flowers annyhow. I really dig all the Rasta insights provided in this thread. Im a Child of God too. I share alot of the views expressed by the Rastas on this board :) ! Just say NO to RELIGION! Big Buds and Blessins on Everybody!

    There was a guy on an online cannabis magazine that did a lot of research into the subject. All his articles were put on his website to advertise his book on the subject. I find them unscientific and a little bit askew at worst, but fundamentally extremely plausible and well backed up with literary references at best.

    All his articles can be found at http://www.forbiddenfruitpublishing.com/chris/index.html

    They really are a good read, if nothing else. I took to printing them out and leaving them "accidentally" in places

    Its funny, but I cant remember if it was on the forums or some where else on the net. But someone said that Rastas take alot of bibical text out of context. But in the bible does it not say that the bible is open to intrupatation?
