Christ means the 'anointed one', and it was common for people to be anointed by cannabis oil back in those days, likely specifically because of its healing benefits, as a sort of special oil.

So, if you believe there was a real historical man jesus, and he was christ, he could very well have experience with 'getting high', and he would be among the holiest of peoples right? That could lend some legitimacy to using herb in a spiritual manner.

Otherwise, I would be more inclined to say, if its there, and it helps you get in tune with inner peace/truth/grace/contentment/understanding whatever, than yea... its all good. But like all earthly things, it can be used for good or bad.

If sobriety is what helps keep you down to earth, your ego in check, your hopes high... than thats the way for you... nomsayin?
