people who smoke this drug claim they have the spiritual encounters, which makes it a good thing? On the other side, this little detail could lead someone who does not smoke to believe that a dark spiritual force is lurking behind it. Most persons who smoked marijuana "though the perception when high is they can fly to the moon" Hit a hard reality when they learn this couldn't be further from the truth, because nothing good happens in their lives as a result. So is this not worth taking a second look at?

In looking at the spiritual aspect as is slowly takes each person who smokes it and turns him or her away from God gave talents and gifts. Evil -definition known as anything not of God; sure, one may argue that God may have created the heavens and the earth and everything in it.

People's mind alters in such a way that they are no longer the individuals that God created them to be. Most drugs can demonstrate this effect. All drugs have a tendency to produce this. However, the difference is the subtly of THIS particular drug. Again, it controls the mind in a way that is highly deceptive; it slowly takes people away from everything they once loved, which includes their hobbies, interests and specific gifts, which only God could have granted them.
