Cannabis and Christians
May 17, 2017
Can they coexist? Yes, if cannabis is used as medicine, says Lydia Decker, founder of Genesis 1:29, the organization she heads that uses religion to preach the value of medical cannabis. And even if they can’t coexist, what right do Christians have to pressure the state to force non-Christians to abstain? None, of course. See my book The War on Drugs Is a War on Freedom.
