The most needed Rehabilitation is for WoD Junkies.
Ganja would be a good treatment,
and a maintenance option.
But I don't think the separate government,
recognizes Ganjians re-legion as legitimate .
As a bonified pleaser,
obedient to the hand that feeds it.

Ganja is an ancient Sacrament,
Scientists discovered hashish incense.
Devotees toking peacefully,
finding God without the Priests.
Without the Wine sold by Monks.
Healing after hours without permits,
given free to those who need it.

Opposite of today's pill popping Christians,
Numbing the kids or a boost for the parents,
with multiple shapes sizes and colors.
Wearing plastic poly fiber,
from the same OPEC fossil fools.
Forcing it into Americans cars,
making billions of dollars,
while we're stuck in traffic.

Hemp paper and lumber,
without clear cutting mountains of their trees.
Hemp fiber steel,
more dent resistant than strip mined ore.
Hemp fiber concrete for houses,
and deep roots for cleaning the soil,
from chemical waste dumps.

Fiber for shelter and clothing,
seeds for nutrition and building immune systems.
It's other side effects,
preventing profits of those "treating"
illness, unrest and prohibitions.
Questioning Infallible Popes,
and Naked Emperors fashions.
Not Conserving Compassion.

Plagued by Moral Relativism

Neither the trappings of robes, nor temples of stone, nor a fixed liturgy, nor an extensive literature or history is required to meet the test of beliefs cognizable under the Constitution as religious. So far as our law is concerned, one person's religious beliefs held for one day are presumptively entitled to the same protection as the beliefs of millions which have been shared for thousands of years.
-- Judge Jack Weinstein, New York State, 1977

Warning To States on Funding Faith-Based Charities

ACLU Sues Over Faith-Based Rehab By Norman Sinclair
The Detroit News December 06, 2005 
In a lawsuit filed on his behalf by the civil rights group, a 23-year-old Catholic man from Genesee County is asking a federal judge to set aside a drug conviction, saying he was punished for not completing a Pentecostal rehabilitation program. Joseph Hanas was 19 when he pleaded guilty to a marijuana possession charge in February 2001 in Genesee Circuit Court and was placed in a diversion program for young, non-violent offenders.



Pot Church Takes a Hit By Stephanie Innes

A federal exemption for peyote exists when it's used for religious practices by members of the Native American Church. In Arizona, people using peyote who aren't members of the Native American Church also are exempt as long as the peyote is used for a "bona fide religious purpose" in a manner that doesn't threaten the public. But there are no such exceptions for marijuana.

"Marijuana is difficult, even if they have a sincere religious belief," Haynes said. "The federal government has already successfully fought efforts to get a medical exemption."

The U.S. Constitution contains no legally recognizable definition of religion, but courts still can apply a test of sincerity, said Jeremy Gunn, director of the Freedom of Religion and Belief program for the American Civil Liberties Union, which supported the UDV church.

Organic aid for cocaine addiction
FM: mandala golem Jan 27, 2004

Organic aid for other addictions as well...

The implementation of organic psychedelics, hallucinogens, entheogens... whatever one chooses to call them, I prefer entheogens... in personal practice is a natural method of understanding addiction and is more efficient than most conventional techniques. Study is furthered when practiced with one other individual, preferably well trained in psychology-this includes individuals usually considered shamans. We do not need the pharmaceutical solution offered at the end of the provided article. Salvia Divinorum, a potent entheogen, can be administered as a natural agent to aid in the recovery from cocaine addiction.

Supreme Court seems to be in favor of lessening drugs laws. They just read on CSPAN Washington Journal that Roberts and Scalia both think that the drug laws on religious use of DMT are overreaching. Scalia noted that American Indians take peyote ritualistically and the sky didn't fall down. I just saw it in writing on CSPAN and it will be on later today. I can't find the quotes. But you can trust me. John Roberts and Scalia are both in favor of reducing drug laws somewhat. They aren't radical conservatives. I like them both very much.

Justice Antonin Scalia, who wrote the 1990 peyote opinion, said tribes have been using peyote _ "a demonstration you can make an exception without the sky falling.

The 1990 decision went against a religious use exemption, it was congress who overturned, or tightned up the decision with the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 , and scalia wrote the first one and concurred on the case you mention, so there is no precedent for him, scalia, believing in a religious use exemption that would overturn local, state or federal statutes

Marijuana May Live Up To Be The Elixir of Life By Ravi Chopra

A study by University of Saskatchewan researchers suggests beneficial aspects of smoking marijuana at least among rats, who appear to have sprouted new brain cells and besides benefiting from reduced depression and anxiety. The study's results appearing in the 'Journal of Clinical Investigation' have actually given a fillip to the traditional and mythological view that associates the addictive weed in some ways with immortality.

Cannabis is a First-Line Treatment By Dr. Tod Mikuriya



In 1996, California legalized cannabis as a treatment for "any... condition for which marijuana brings relief." Although the law does not constrain physicians from approving the use of cannabis by children and adolescents, the state medical board has investigated physicians for doing so, exerting a profoundly inhibiting effect.



CANNABIS DOES NOT CAUSE CANCER
The Clinton administration has said that doctors prescribing marijuana could be prosecuted for a federal crime. Marijuana has been reported to ease the pain, nausea and vomiting in advanced stages of cancer, AIDS and other serious illnesses, but the federal government claims other treatments have been deemed safer than what it calls "a psychoactive, burning carcinogen." However, The Boston Globe says the government's claim appears to be undercut by its own $2 million study.

Gateway To Nowhere? Pot Doesn't Lead To Heroin July 20, 2006
It's a theory that has long seemed to make intuitive sense, but remained unproven. The federal government's last National Survey on Drug Use and Health, conducted in 2004, counted about 97 million Americans who have tried marijuana, compared to 3 million who have tried heroin.
(166,000 had used it in the previous month).

That's not much of a rush through the gateway.

Deaths in the United States in a typical year are as follows...

* Tobacco kills about 400,000
* Alcohol kills about 80,000
* Workplace accidents kill 60,000
* Automobiles kill 40,000
* Cocaine kills about 2,500
* Heroin kills about 2,000
* Aspirin kills about 2,000
* Marijuana kills 0

James Madison: What influence in fact have Christian ecclesiastical establishments had on civil society? In many instances they have been upholding the thrones of political tyranny. In no instance have they been seen as the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wished to subvert the public liberty have found in the clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate liberty, does not need the clergy.

Madison objected to state-supported chaplains in Congress and to the exemption of churches from taxation. He wrote: Religion and government will both exist in greater purity, the less they are mixed together.

Meet America?s New Drug Pusher : John P Walters

Body Count: Moral Poverty...
and How to Win America's War Against Crime and Drugs

by William J. Bennett (Author),
John J., Jr Diiulio (Author),
John P. Walters (Author)



Description

From Amazon.com

If it is difficult to take seriously a book on crime-fighting that starts by calling the Reagan-Bush drug war "the most successful attack on a serious social problem in the last quarter-century," consider that the authors up the ante with their alarmist forecasts of an approaching wave of youthful "super-predators," members of "the youngest, biggest and baddest generation any society has ever known." Evidence for this army of thugs seems slight in the face of sharp nationwide declines in rates of violent crime, but then former drug czar and self-appointed virtue expert William Bennett is preaching to the choir here anyway.

From Publishers Weekly
The authors bring vast amounts of varied expertise to the problems of crime and drugs in America. Bennett (The Moral Compass) was head of the Office of National Drug Control Policy in the Bush administration; DiIulio is a professor of politics and public affairs at Princeton; Walters directs the Council on Crime in America. Jointly, they offer a depressing analysis of the growing crime problem in the U.S., treating subjects like gun control (they are for it), incarceration and the death penalty (they believe both are applied capriciously), alcohol abuse (they feel it is underestimated as a cause of crime) and drug abuse (they are alarmed it is on the rise after declining steadily between 1980 and 1992).

Most shocking to them is the neglect of children: many parents do not want them or do not want to raise them; many schools do not educate them; many government agencies are too inundated to assist them. All this is giving rise to what the authors call "superpredators," kids from 13 to 16 who apparently feel nothing as they kill, rob or rape. Refraining from any rigorous systemic or economic analyses, they ascribe this sad state of affairs to moral poverty and think that religion offers the best solution.
Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Kids Who Kill & Faith Based DiIulio

How do you judge the current US Administration, which appears to suggest that it is acceptable to legislate morality and "punish people for their sins"? Where do modern state leaders fall on your map when they bring religion to bear as a compass for waging war at home and abroad?

Take the drug war, for example. Bush appointed John Walters his Drug Czar in 2001. It has been widely documented that Walters openly stated that the solution to drugs is to fight "moral poverty" with "a widespread renewal of religious faith and the strengthening of religious institutions." In fact, he co-authored a book called "Body Count: Moral Poverty...and How to Win America's War Against Crime and Drugs"

Incidentally, Walter's faith-based approach has proven to be a disaster of epic proportions. It basically uses a 0 tolerance policy that radicalizes users and moves them to harder drugs -- federal figures show drug-related deaths jumped to 22,300 and hospital emergency cases to 670,000 in 2002, both record peaks. Walters is overseeing the worst drug crisis ever with fatality rates three to 10 times higher than Canada’s and Europe’s.

An Insider Reveals Faith-Based Manipulation by the White House

Is anybody surprised that a White house ruled by the likes of Karl Rove and Dick Cheney would engage in manipulation of religion—or anything else? I recall the reflections of the first head of the faith-based program office, John Dilulio, who left after six months, and later cited the disconnects between the White House's faith-based office and the domestic policy advisors, referring to them as “Mayberry Machiavellians.”

Kuo describes the cynical character of the faith-based program, where White House officials would regularly “roll their eyes” privately about religious leaders, and refer to them with disdain, even as “nuts” while, at the same time, praising them as public allies and reaching out to their constituencies for votes. MSNBC quotes Kuo as writing, “National Christian leaders received hugs and smiles in person and then were dismissed behind their backs and described as ‘ridiculous,’ ‘out of control,’ and just plain ‘goofy.’” “You name the important Christian leaders, and I have heard them mocked, by serious people in serious places,” said Kuo on 60 Minutes.

For full disclosure, I should say that I've known David Kuo for years. We met at a retreat and began a conversation which has lasted ever since. He was, and is indeed, a conservative evangelical Christian, as he said on 60 Minutes, and was quite unhappy with the many contradictions and hypocrisies of liberalism. I had to agree with much of his critique. But he also genuinely cared about the poor and that was our point of connection. David Kuo was one of those genuine “compassionate conservatives” which many liberals don’t believe really exist, but truly do. Yet he eventually came to realize that there weren’t many compassionate conservatives in the White House, which preferred to use the religious community for their own political purposes.

When asked if he believed the White House will now come after him, Kuo replied, “Of course they will, I can hear the attacks, ‘Oh, he’s really a liberal, or maybe that brain tumor really messed up his head.” (Kuo survived a bout with brain cancer while serving in the White House). But, he says, “I have this burden on my heart that the name of God is being destroyed in the name of politics … I felt like I had to write this.

Established in 1997 by two leading neocon figures, William Kristol and Robert Kagan, PNAC aims to put the United States back on a course toward "global leadership" and to promote a "Reaganite policy of military strength and moral clarity."

Signatories to its statement of principles included future Bush administration officials Elliott Abrams, Dick Cheney, Paula Dobriansky, I. Lewis Libby, Peter Rodman, Donald Rumsfeld, Zalmay Khalilzad, and Paul Wolfowitz. Other signatories included Gary Bauer, William Bennett, Jeb Bush, Midge Decter, Frank Gaffney, Norman Podhoretz, Steve Forbes, Eliot Cohen, Fred Ikle, and Dan Quayle.

Heroin is legal medicine in England. It reaches pain something like 88 times faster than morphine. But morphine is a depressant, while heroin is Euphoric. The church doesn't think it's the right message to the kids if sick people were looking happy. After all, people get sick because of sins. Better they suffer here on Earth and get their rewards in Heaven, later, if they donated enough in tithings, and turn a blind eye to the perverts that is.

Study Turns Pot Wisdom on Head By Dawn Walton

Calgary -- Forget the stereotype about dopey potheads. It seems marijuana could be good for your brain. While other studies have shown that periodic use of marijuana can cause memory loss and impair learning and a host of other health problems down the road, new research suggests the drug could have some benefits when administered regularly in a highly potent form. Most "drugs of abuse" such as alcohol, heroin, cocaine and nicotine suppress growth of new brain cells. However, researchers found that cannabinoids promoted generation of new neurons in rats' hippocampuses.

Ganja & the Bible
Despite common knowledge and widespread scientific support, the federal government has for nearly 30 years kept cannabis in schedule 1 as a deliberate way to deny patients access to medical marijuana. This includes people suffering from asthma, cancer, migraine headache, chronic pain, spasticity, glaucoma, arthritis, and provides relief for many other conditions. As a result, people at various locations across the USA have had to risk and suffer years in prison for providing medical marijuana to patients as an act of compassion and personal conscience. What would Jesus do? He chose to break the law in order to heal the sick.

Let the free, grow "the fruit and leaves of this energy plant"; "the priceless tree of life."
