Okay seriously... How come some people can smoke pot for years - and possibly LOTS of pot over those years - and suffer no serious side effects, while other people become absolute burn-outs? What (beyond age when they start, and amount smoked) is the difference?

Yes, if pot was legal and regulated I would suggest that there be a minimum age like tabacco and alcohol.

Burn outs?? I'm guessing marijuana is not the only drug involved. Sure a life long smoker will probably be a bit more laid back than the average joe, but their intellect is sharp.

I had a pothead teacher in college... learned more from that man than most.

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