Scrap the nonsense of trying to obliterate drugs and acknowledge their presence in our society as we have with alcohol and tobacco. Legalization would result in:
purity assurance under Food and Drug Administration regulation;
labeled concentration of the product (to avoid overdose);
obliteration of vigorous marketing ("pushers");
obliteration of drug crime and reduction of theft crime
savings in expensive enforcement and
significant tax revenues.

Morality is not contingent on religion to exist. Therefore religion only detracts from the purity of morality.
