    ABOUT MARIJUANA

    Last Updated: 11th April 2008


    I am a curious person, have been all my life...

    I've tried what i've wanted to try, and here's some facts i've picked up along the way...

    Anything and everything in moderation, with certain exceptions...

    It is my personal belief, based on years of personal research and experimentation, that lots of Marijuana
    has a net-positive, ie. beneficial, effect on the human mind and body, including such things as overall health and longevity.

    It is my personal belief, based on years of personal research and experimentation, that a little Cigarettes, or Alcohol,
    has a net-happy, ie. slightly beneficial, effect on the human mind and body, including such things as overall health and longevity.

    It is my personal belief, based on years of research and experimentation, that too much Alcohol and most Hard Drugs
    has a net-negative, ie. non-beneficial, effect on the human mind and body, including such things as overall health and longevity.



    This flies directly in the fact of conservative opinion, but please, instead of listening to raw commercial and political
    propaganda, based on barely researched statistics, please make up your own mind, based on raw scientifically researched facts.



    First, a couple of very simple questions :-

    • Q: How many people have ever died from using Marijuana?
      A: ZERO.


    • Q: How many people have ever died from using Alcohol or (possibly) Cigarettes?
      A: Billions.




    Real-World Facts About Marijuana :-




    • Marijuana is non-addictive.


    • Marijuana brings you closer to GOD, and Nature, and Natural Things.


    • Marijuana opens your third eye, the psychic, or sixth sense... to an unprecedented reality of a different kind, vastly good.


    • Marijuana is an ANTI-PSYCHOTIC substance currently being trialed as a treatment for schizophrenia
      (severe mental illness) in Canada.


    • Marijuana is NEURO-PROTECTIVE, meaning that if you have a stroke or similar event while you are
      under the influence of Marijuana, the damage caused to the brain is much less severe.


    • Marijuana is ANTI-INFLAMMATORY, and people who have used marijuana during their lifetime
      at do not suffer from neurological disorders typical of old age.


    • Marijuana is the STRONGEST NATURAL PAINKILLER known to mankind.


    • Marijuana does NOT cause Emphysema.


    • People who eat Marijuana eat about 2-3 times the amount normally smoked, for a "high" that last 6 times as long.


    • People who use Marijuana do not develop aging-related inflammatory brain diseases such as Alzheimers and Parkinsons,
      or other inflammatory diseases such as arthritis.


    • Marijuana has been the PRIMARY TREATMENT for schizophrenia for the past 20,000 years or more, in China and other places.


    • Marijuana is NOT the cause of mental illness. New Scientist magazine published a complete article
      debunking the "supposed" links between Marijuana usage and mental illness. Of all the billions
      of people who have ever used Marijuana, exactly (3) people in a total survey response of approx 670
      people were deemed schizophrenic, ie. mentally ill, and the link between using Marijuana and the
      mental illness was tenuous at best, with no real provable correlation. This equates to HALF the norm.


    • Marijuana has ZERO long term negative effects, proven by the fact that the heaviest users in the world
      (Jamaicans) were surveyed exhaustively at the age of 55-65 and those who had smoked the equivalent
      of 20 incredibly heavy "joints" a day for 40 years showed minimal signs of mental or physical
      impairment compared to the control group who had never used marijuana.


    • Marijuana has been used exhaustively by the human race for well over 200,000 years, as far as we know,
      Meaning that we have symbiotically grown with Marijuana for long enough to be genetically modified by it.


    • Marijuana has been actively cultivated for the past 30,000 years or more.


    • Marijuana was only prohibited in the 1930's, when Plastic was invented, mostly because Hemp was physically
      stronger than the earliest plastics and cotton, and commercial greed conspired to inflict
      "prohibition" on us and rob us of the strongest natural fibre known to mankind.


    • Eating Marijuana causes a dramatic lowering of cholesterol throughout the entire body.


    • Using Marijuana causes an increase in appetite (initally), loss of inhibition (initially),
      reversal of several major medical issues, such as the complete reversal of symptoms of despair,
      depression, anxiety, physical pain, and so on.


    • Using Marijuana relaxes the end user, and they can think clearly.


    • Using Marijuana reduces the phenomenon of "voices" (auditory hallucinations)
      and visual hallucinations experienced by schizophrenics, and also stabilizes mood
      for people who suffer from bi-polar disorder.


    • Using Marijuana causes a significant reduction in blood pressure, and is recommended for glaucoma patients.


    • Using Marijuana significantly reduces symptoms of nausea, lack of wellbeing, etc. and is recommended for cancer patients.


    • It is literally impossible to overdose on Marijuana, unlike all other known intoxicants...
      At worst case, using too much Marijuana causes a deep and restful sleep...


    • It is literally impossible to have withdrawal symptoms from Marijuana, unlike all other known intoxicants...
      At worst case, people still want the 'habit' to continue, but there are no actual physical withdrawal symptoms
      (and I should know, having gone on and off pot for many years)...


    • Marijuana dramatically reduces stress-related illness.


    • Marijuana is a bronchial dilator, a natural anti-asthma treatment.


    • The human brain has specific neural receptors that bind specifically to Marijuana, and only to Marijuana,
      and these neural connectors are fundamental to the correct working of the human brain, and this points to
      the fact that Marijuana and Humankind have been co-evolving for millennia in a symbiotic relationship.


    • The active ingredient in Marijuana, Delta-9 TetraHydroCannabinol, is a fatty acid essential for normal brain function.


    • Zero-Tolerance of Marijuana (ie. Prohibition) is blatently stupid, costing zillions of dollars for no noticable effect,
      and tying up valuable police resources that could be better used targeting "real crime".


    • 1 in 5 people in "western" countries use Marijuana at least once a week.
    • At least 1 in 5 people in "other" countries use Marijuana at least once a day.


    • If a global, legal trade and cultivation in Marijuana and Hemp were established it would dramatically reduce petty crime, worldwide.


    • If a global, legal trade and cultivation in Marijuana and Hemp were established it would dramatically boost government income, and dramatically lower the cost of the "black" economy, worldwide, and provide a massive boost to goods and services worldwide.




    Just thought you might like to be informed of some REAL WORLD FACTS about Marijuana.



    It all goes to show that putting a bunch of monkeys in a small enclosed tank and basically asphyxiating them
    with Marijuana smoke will prove anything to the brain-dead.

    Same for blatently misrepresented statistics.



    To answer the much-posed but usually neglected question asked of Marijuana users :-

    "Why do you do it?"

    The answer: "Because We Enjoy It"





    Real-World facts about Alcohol.



    I'll start by asking you a much-neglected question 95% of the population should be asked :-

    "Why do you drink alcohol?"

    The answer: "Because we get drunk, lose control of our faculties, throw up all over people, become homosexual,
    because it's totally toxic to the human genome, it causes chromosomal abnormalities and mutations galore,
    and because it causes cancer."

    Alcohol causes permanent brain damage.
    Alcohol is TOXIC to the human body.

    Nothing more.
    Nothing less.

    Alcohol contains 10 times the amount of acetaldehyde found in cigarettes.
    Easily enough to overload a weakened immune system.
    Easily enough to fuck up your mind and make men gay.





    Real-World facts about Cigarettes.



    Cigarettes by themselves do NOT cause cancer, regardless of what inadequate science and governments say.
    Cigarettes increase your mental I.Q. by at least 30%.
    The active by-product of cigarette consumption, nicotinic acid, is actually required by the body to repair it's dna.
    Smoking Cigarettes reduces dental decay substantially.

    Now, to put something into stark reality terms :-

    Right now, in 2007, some 350 million chinese smoke cigarettes.
    Projected deaths from cigarettes? In 2020, they estimate only about 2 million people will die per year from smoking.

    My question to you: how many people will die of old age? Or other illness? Such as bad diet or car exhaust fumes?

    Remember always that it is not environment that causes death.
    Instead, you are always genetically predisposed to death, and cigarettes >may< only exacerbate it a little.

    Remember, a cigarette smoker is most likely genetically predisposed to smoking, and they require it for normal
    brain function. That's just raw genetics. The environmental harms are minimal, in comparison to normal death
    rates for these people. My guess is those who die early from supposedly smoking cigarettes would die early
    even if they did not smoke cigarettes. Not everyone is meant to live to 100 or 120 at this point in time.

    It would be nice to have a way to determine people's natural age of death, and then compare that to those
    who smoke and get the environmental benefits of cigarettes factored in.

    To me, cigarettes do not cause death, otherwise no-one ever would live to be 100 while chain-smoking cigarettes.

    Finally, I probably have cancer and heart disease, as most people do all day every day.
    Was it the cigarettes that caused the cancer and heart disease? Or was I born with it?

    You know what i'd like to see, a graph showing the correlations between cigarette reduction and
    genetic abnormalities, such as bowel cancer, in the western populations.

    Remember this :- people who smoke pipes or cigars are much LESS likely to develop lung cancer than NON-SMOKERS.
    They don't like to tell you this do they?

    Finally, why do governments like the anti-cigarette lobby so much? Well, cigarettes are big-business,
    which the governments hate, and also, the government likes to dumb down the masses as much as possible.



    Finally, to answer the much-posed question asked of Cigarette users :-

    "Why do you do it?"

    The answer: "Because We Enjoy It"




    Real-World facts about Coffee.



    Coffee increases your mental I.Q. by 10-20%, and raises your metabolism significantly.





    Real-World facts about Milk.



    Milk is the best health supplement available, since it stabilizes your metabolism and promotes weight-loss.
    Milk is the best lung-protectant known to mankind.

    If you drink milk, you eat less.





    Wrap-Up



    Look, cigarettes and marijuana and coffee and even milk probably do cause genetic abnormalities of sorts,
    but nothing incredibly significant like they claim in the published scientific literature.

    Alcohol, on the other hand, definately causes genetic abnormalities galore, and loads of illness and death.

    Why? Because we have evolved for millenia in conjunction with Cigarettes and Marijuana, since the birth of fire.

    Yet alcohol (and milk) have only been used for a few thousand years, and we have not yet grown to encompass
    the genetic significance of these products of our natural environment.





    Other Stuff



    Please, if you smoke marijuana, then you probably have a lot of time...

    You might want to read about the biggest real-world conspiracy in history (not related to marijuana)

    Since i smoke, i know what it's like to sit on a computer for hours after a couple of cones...
    Please, take a read of this entire website at some point in time...

    It's interesting... definately not normal... you know?
