From a Christian view, the opposition is to drunkenness, which is depriving a person of reason. I think most of the people seem to argue cannabis basically always produces drukenness of sorts, although I have known some people to seem to be able to reason while high so I am not sure if that would be akin to a lesser “being buzzed” or not. Many Christians who are against “drunkenness” avoid getting high since they think it will create a state of drunkenness, hence there are probably a lack of people who can speak “from experience” on if such drug creates drunkenness or not in lower doses, who are also opposed to it.

I don’t do it and understand it as basically against my religion on some level.

I don’t do it.

But when my uncle was dying of cancer I smoked with him, so if you’re dying of cancer I’ll also smoke with you, dear reader.

I have smoked weed recreationally a couple of times in the past, though I never really got into it.

In my experience it’s slightly less harmful than drinking heavily, assuming that you don’t pick it up as a habit.

As a habit it’s usually a huge dampener on your potential, most stoners I’ve known ended up very annoying and slightly retarded people. You also risk getting comfortable with drugs not being that bad in general, which is a huge miscalculation.

My recommendation is to stick to the booze.
