So I read on msnbc.com that smoking weed/doing drugs is a sin. This came from the vatican, so I guess it like another one of those 7 deadly sins. I want to know what is everyones opinion about smoking bud being a sin?

The vatican doesn't know anything. If there is a god s/he wouldn't listen to what they had to say s/he'd make his/her own decisions. If there's a god why would s/he create a plant that is supposed to have no use. Seems like a waste of creation from a god who's supposed to be creating all things to be good. I'm sorry if theres any Christians here who I am offending but that's just my opinion. Here's a quote from the bible that I think goes against the Vatican.

Gen 1:11-12 obviously doesn't apply to every use every plant has. Hemlock, for instance, is very poisonous, but still has certain uses.

The argument that the Marijuana plant (Cannabis) still has "good" is easy to make, rope for instance, is extremely strong when made of hemp.

True but why is it still illegal to grow hemp in America? but I guess that's a little off the topic anyway.

Please. The only reason sex isn't a sin is because it would cut down on the membership.

Seriously, everything is a sin if it's deemed so. Even the use of condoms as means to protect against pregnancy (nothing clear for intent from STD's) is stilll a sin.

Saavedra, it's only a sin if you think it is. I don't think it's one.

I don't think smoking Marijuana is a sin. If it is, I'm basically doomed for eternal damnation....

I hope they have good chronic in Hell.

It is not that which enters a mans mouth which defiles him, but that which comes out.

Smoking marijuana is not a sin. Drinking alcohol is not a sin.

What Mel Gibson did when he got caught drunk driving was a sin. It wasn't the drink that put hateful feelings into his heart, it simply helped them escape his lips, but the hate was already there.

Peace and Love

the vatican is part of catholosism. and im am not one to knock a religion but i dont necessarily agree with some of their beliefs. i belive that weed is natural and is from god just like all plants. doing drugs in general like hard drugs or abusing them is wrong. im a very religious person and in my heart i dont belive weed is bad.

Smoking marijuana is not a sin.

Inhaling marijuana smoke is not a sin. Exhaling it may be an entirely different matter.

Forgive me. The devil made me do it.
