So i was thinking... is MaryJ good for the body, mind or soul, or is it just a harmless high that we like to enjoy?:joint:

i would agree that its good for the mind, and maybe even the soul (if it exists?) but, i would not say its good for the body. dont get me wrong, i love my smoke, and there are ways to make it less BAD for the body, or even neutral (bongs = less, Vapes = neutral (and food)) but as far as doing actual physical GOOD for the body (nothing metaphysical or non proven) i doubt it.

That's a hard question to answer yes or no too. If you are part of that low percentile that does not react well to Pot than yes it can harm you, but with most research showing the good it does, far exceeds any documented bad for you, everyone get high. The only other warning is that teens up to late teens can have psychological issues, so smoking the odd joint is OK but chronic will put you at the back of the class.

Lots of research to support my condensed conclusions on the net and med pot sites.

Yea, but maybe teens are just finding themselves. As we grow and evolve, we take what we know and expand on it, constantly devouring new sources of information and disregarding things that seem trivial and boring. School is where i actually want to go believe it or not. Education seems so hard to reach, even in 21st century setting. But ill be in College soon with new boundaries to open up so ill see where that takes me. I still dont know what the deal is with Financial Aid, but im hoping itll come.

As with anything, you can overdo it. There will always be people who give something a bad name because they can't control themselves around it. If you live in america, then you know what I'm talking about when it comes to people and their food. How fat can people get and how lazy can you be to not want to exercise? yikes.

It's not like America is the only place with fat people. Although it is one of the few places left with people who can think for themselves without needing some social or government approval. We're selling those rights away as privileges now so we're not too far behind Europe.

Lets not make this political. 30% of Americans are obese (http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/hea_obe-health-obesity). I've traveled to over 26 countries in my life and the one thing I always notice at the airport upon my return is how fat and lazy we are. That just goes along with my point about 'things in moderation'. We have a DEA, what is really killing us is our food. We need an FEA, :lol:.

Yeah, I think that's the ticket - moderation. It took me a while when I was younger to realize that drugs can be done in moderation and still be enjoyable. Moderation's a good thing... alcohol, weed, food, porn, gambling...

And if you look at DEMOGRAPHICS you realize our obesity problem isn't any different than Europe. Europe is mostly White people averaging around 20% obesity. White people in America are hitting around the same. The difference is our Black and Latino populations which skew the numbers. I guess you didn't notice when you travelled to America, or maybe you only hit European tourists cities, but people of European decent are becoming a minority. :p

LOL. It's a fact nothing to do with race. The country statistics make it obvious. If #2 on the list is Mexico and our number 1 in obesity by demographic is Latinos at 45%, it stands to reason that skews the proportions. Blacks again are around 40%. It's actually more prevalent in women than males, so I guess I'm sexist too.

In fact I blame it on our welfare and unemployment system which promotes the problem. I see just as many White people on welfare abusing the system as I do others. If you have a job and are working, chances are you can't sit around watching tv eating junk food. And if you don't have a job, your job should be finding a job.

Well guess what kid, those blacks, Latinos and other minorities are Americans. Your ignorance just earned you a spot on my ignore list. :clap:
