I really find it hard to believe there are any MJ smokers on this site, that do not know the Earth Revolves around the sun...

So are MJ partakers just overall smarter than non MJ peeps?

IDK....

Not a huge surprise when a majority of the humans on this planet also believe there is an invisible man in the sky.

Since this is now a one party system too stupid(or indebted)to abolish the Fed Res., it doesn't matter as it relates to the future of the US.

Which at the present rate is about 2 more generations until this country resembles the former Soviet Union economically.

And I am not surprised in the least people are ignorant in natural science. The curriculum in most schools still don't emphasize math and science.

History should be eliminated, if there was anything gained by studying this subject...man would not repeat the same mistakes over and over. He or she would actually learn by the mistakes already made by our ancestors, and written about in the very books currently used.

I thought you were serious about this for a while. Sarcasm gets lost in translation.

Asking if MJ partakers are smarter when you haven't shown any evidence at all that "I really find it hard to believe there are any MJ smokers on this site, that do not know the Earth Revolves around the sun..." is valid is premature.

Perhaps if we studied history more we wouldn't keep repeating the same mistakes.
