5 Bible Verses That Prove God Loves Marijuana and Colorado

1.  “Then God said, “Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed that is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree which has fruit yielding seed; it shall be meat for you;” (Genesis 1:29)

The Republican right will oft resort to faith and morality when arguing against medicinal marijuana and as we now have in Colorado, legalized recreational marijuana.  We can see that the most Biblically moral being of all, God, is saying in the first chapter of his novel, that ‘every herb yielding seed’ is meant for mankind.  How does marijuana not fit that?

2.  “A healing plant. On either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare 12 manner of fruits, and yielding her fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.” (Revelations 22:1-2)

America needs to calm down.  Can you imagine how the Syria thing would have gone if Obama could have just called Putin over, sat back with a spliff and Doritos, then just decide they should both convince Assad to stop being a genocidal maniac and just totally chill out?

3.  “Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times, some shall … speak lies in hypocrisy … commanding to abstain from meats which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.” (Paul: 1 Timothy 4:1-3)

Well, here is a prophesy:  that governments, in the end days, would make some sort of vendetta against marijuana.   Do we have that going on now?  I think this is the part where I request someone give me an ‘Amen’.

The parable of the screaming O’reilly.

4.  “Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; that which cometh out of the mouth defileth a man.” (Mat. 15:11)

Here’s a parable.  If Bill O’Reilly, starts angrily yelling at a guest on his show for no apparent reason, are we to judge his irrational behavior was caused by the catfish dinner he ate before going on set?  It would seem quite irrational.  Marijuana does not cause violent urges and while it may affect people in various ways, the bottom line is it is not addictive, is a social item — just like bubblegum — and can be a major boon for the US economy.  People who smoke it are no less or more prone to violence than those who don’t.  Attributing marijuana to the actions that malevolent people who may have used it makes as much sense as blaming catfish dinners on ignorant Republicans.

5.   - Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.  Genesis 9:3
