GOD THINKS WELL OF MARIJUANA

Re: "Virginia should legalize pot," Nov. 26 commentary:

Robert Sharpe hit the bull's-eye exposing cannabis (marijuana) 
prohibition; caging responsible adults for using the God-given plant 
cannabis is just plain wrong on every facet.

Another reason to pass HB 1443 that he doesn't mention is that 
legalization is biblically correct, since God, the Ecologician, 
indicates he created all the seed-bearing plants, saying they are all 
good, on the first page of the Bible. The only biblical restriction 
placed on cannabis is to accept it with thankfulness (1 Timothy). 
What kind of government cages people for using what God says is good?
