High On Heresy: Exposing the Biblical Cannabis Myth

Sobriety

“This isn’t the first effort to combine cannabis with Christianity, and it won’t be the last. The desperation is palpable. The reach is breathtaking. The scholarship is shoddy.” - ReligionUnplugged

NewAnother point of order....

...is that an altar at Tel Arad would have been one of the infamous "high places" (ha!) of Israel, and would thus have been representative not of orthodox Jewish thought, but rather of heterodox practices. One also has to wonder why the ancients, orthodox or heterodox/heretical, would have thought that "skunkweed", as it's commonly called, would be a fragrance accepted by God. Maybe they thought that The Lord needed the munchies to consume all those offerings?

(and if it were part of that secret recipe, wouldn't that mean we shouldn't use it?)

Messed up in so many ways.

Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.
