Coffee doesn't put you in an altered state of consciousness. So I can judge MJ above coffee as being far more dangerous. and BTW, getting "buzzed" is not moderation. Must be a coffee drinker...

Only one beer?Why do you need that one beer? That is good that you only limit your alcohol to only one beer. I would not even recommend drinking on an everyday basis. Even one beer. I don't need the beer, I drink the beer because I enjoy it. I like to try new and different varieties, stouts, porters, IPA, etc. I drink about a 6 pack every 8-9 days or so. I always by the "make your own 6 pack" so I can choose different varieties. Edited September 2, 2016 by Out of the Shadows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To get the same basic relaxation effect I get from drinking a beer after dinner. Despite the Cheech and Chong stereotypes, not everyone that smokes marijuana is doing a bag, or even a joint a night.

Keeping ourselves from something is called abstinence. Moderation is using something, but not to excess. The Bible teaches that there is a place for both, depending upon individual circumstances. I believe what the Bible teaches. People's biases are certainly evident in this topic. How willing, even eager, Christians are to judge one another! Nothing has changed since biblical times, when the Pharisees condemned people for not washing their hands before eating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not use mj myself (don't even so much as smoke ciggys) but there is no evidence that mj causes brain damage. Sure, mj can be tampered with but if treated properly (and not smoked - burning plant matter of any kind can still cause lung damage) it has only benefits no drawbacks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
