| I think they are trying to make it legal , I dont think it is legal for them to posess marijuana. http://www.swagga.com/rasta.htm Ganja (Marijuana) Ganja, or better known to non-Rastas as Marijuana, is used for religious purposes for the Rastafarians. They find its use written in the Bible in Psalms 104:14, "He causeth the grass for the cattle, and herb for the service of man". The use of this herb is very extensive among the Rastas not only for spiritual purposes as in their Nyabingi celebration, but also for medicinal purposes for colds and such. Other names for it are Iley, callie, and holy herb. Following are a few of the many Biblical texts that Rastas embrace as reasons God, or Jah, gave them the use of the herb: ". . . thou shalt eat the herb of the field " (Genesis 3:18) ". . . eat every herb of the land " (Exodus 10:12) "Better is a dinner of herb where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith" (Proverbs 15:17) “He Causeth the Grass to Grow for the Cattle, and Herb for the Service of Man” (Psalm 104:14) |
