DON'T BELIEVE ALL THE ANTI-POT HYPE

Colorado legalized medical cannabis (marijuana) use and it has worked
properly, protecting sick citizens from confrontation with government. Amen.

Colorado law enforcement groups alleged what Howell Police Chief
George Basar ("Police chief critical of marijuana measure," Oct. 20)
claims; however, the claims have proven false.

Another reason to permit sick humans to use the relatively safe
God-given plant cannabis (marijuana) that doesn't mentioned is because
it's biblically correct since Christ. The Ecologician indicates he
created all the seed-bearing plants, saying they are all good, on
literally the very first page.

Further, the only biblical restriction placed on cannabis is that it
is to be accepted with thankfulness (see 1Timothy 4:1-5). And "But
whoever has the world's goods, and sees his brother in need and closes
his heart against him, how does the love of God abide in him?" (see 1
John 3:17). Jesus Christ risked jail to heal the sick.
