I must disagree. The Bible COMES from the church, not the other way around.
It was the Roman Catholic Church which PRODUCED the Bible. Let's be clear about that. Under their TOTAL control. They are one in the same.
The Bible is the weapon of the word. The word of the CHURCH.
That'll be three fitty.... amen.

I can tell you from the experience of being a christian that there's nothing about smoking pot being wrong. Think about it, if you believe in god you believe he made everything which means he made pot. Don't you think he knew what it did. Long story short, natural drugs are healthy and spirtual. Man made drugs are evil and unchristian

why? what foundation are you talking about? please explain in detail from your own mind not what you read or were force fed as a child how smoking or ingesting cannabis is immoral. these kinds of posts with no thinking or questioning of the religious poster is one of the many horrific examples of why religion is one of the greatest travesties still affecting all of us. american policy and general attitude is shaped by people who cannot or will not consider things with there own intellects or lack there of it is one of the most infuriating subjects to discuss about the human condition. i could go on and on but it angers me too much and at the same time the people that need to see things differently are incapable of doing so. that right there is a good reason to smoke a bowl. im not particularly eloquent but even if i was there is no reasoning with ignorant people deeply frustrating.

Jesus drank wine, and hung out with sinners, and he was condemned for it, even though he had done nothing wrong. It's not outside appearances that matter, but what's on the inside; that's biblicalI'm pretty sure everyone back then was into any drugs they could find....regardless of what a book says....just maybe that explains a few of the "unusual" events in that book...
is it wrong for a Jew or a Hindu to smoke weed?

Not so. . . . .The Bible prior to being the Bible was a collection of historical documents from people like kings, scribes, peasants, disciples, and just people who transcribed the accounts of the past, like a historical record. Catholicism had nothing to do with the introduction of the bible other than through it's religion. . .
. . .The religion at the time based on the deity of God was Orthodoxy. Constantine was an emperor/king who followed this religion. On his way to fight the Romans he claims God came to him and told him to defeat the Romans in the name of God. At that time Christianity was just emerging throughout the world. Constantine defeated the Romans and then as acting ruler of the roman empire he decreed Christianity the new religion.
. . .from there we get the Bible. Constantine gathered all the orthodox priests and assembled the Bible from all the text that were relevant to Christianity.
. . .That is were we get the bible in it's first form. Remember, since the bible was written in hebrew and greek the (versions) of the bible are many. Words that are translated into english aren't as easy to transfer. So you have the NIV version, the New King James version, the King James version, the Way, and many mant other versions. All are created to help you understand the stories and principlies of Jesus, God, and the Holy Spirit.
. . .if you are closed to religion then no words, stories, or principles can change your mind.
. . .i apologize to everyone on here who has turned from accepting Christ because of the thoughtlessness of those "christians". I was one of them. It is easier to live you own life than to live a life for someone else. God gives us hope for a life beyond our own.

So says the church...... they gave these crazy allegories the wisp of historical significance they do NOT deserve. The Church assembled, edited, and downright threw out stuff to end up with a book they could rule the ppl with. it's pretty simple and no serious scholar considers the Bible to be an historical document, except that it as a book has a history, albeit, only as a book of existence, not as a book of being correct.

but see, thats your OPINION. the old testiment was written befor the first church was even established. we're both finding it hard to distinguish the diffrience between belief and fact. the fact is the church did try to control ppl. but there was a time befor the holy wars and befor the templars that the church wassnt out for control. the power the church had was realized over a course of time. people got greedy and realized they could gain money, power, and fallowers through faith. but that happend long after the bible was published. it wassnt established for control. its just people used church and the bible for their own personal vendictive agendas.

oh and whats sad is that, the roman catholic church still contests to their actions in the past, and still will never admit that they were wrong. but thoes are people. and they are not god. so i listen to the gospel for my answers. and it dont make me any less of a christian or less of believer to say that the church made some horrible mistakes in the past and continue to do so to this day.
