Yeah, I'm not sure - but it seems like it might be something along that line.

Kind of like the reason behind there being so many added chemicals in cigarettes.

The supposed "gateway theory" is, in essence, an illusion.

It's the equivalent of concluding that, since cannabis is used by a certain PERCENTAGE of people, that CAUSES them to use other illicit drugs.

In short, there is NO causal explanation in this so-called "theory" that explains WHY someone uses certain drugs...and then uses certain other drugs.

And, in fact, you are deluding yourself to think that ANY one drug CAUSES the use of any other drug.

If this were true, then what CAUSED the use of cannabis in the first place?

(Answer: Anything else BUT any other drug.)

Good comeback.

There is no LSD in weed though. People are perfectly satisfied with the weed itself.

If you really believe that God made marijuana why in the world would you let a government restrict access to it? It makes no logical sense because there is no logic in faith I guess.

You guys just need to smoke a bowl and decide for yourselves. Uncle Sam is wrong on this one and mother earth is right.

And a lot of people against weed drink alcohol! And that shit is MAN made (not naturally occuring). ODD ODD world we live in.

Hypocrisy.

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.

You know, Hev, nothing will change your mind about anything. But there are some heavyweights that disagree with you.

And you can spin it any way you want, but there's some pretty solid evidence that marijuana IS a gateway drug.

God made poppies too. You don't seriously think that it should be ok to use opium?
