One story that sounds exaggerated but really IS true is that no one has ever overdosed on Marijuana. Or, as my daughter once put it, "You can smoke yourself retarded, but you can't smoke yourself dead"

Yes, and smoking pot is safer than either smoking cigarettes OR drinking alcohol. There are many GOOD and TRUE arguments in favor of marijuana, there is no need to rely on falsehoods and half-truths.

I thought this thread would be about such things as;
"I swear to you that it's 5 grams" "This is the best shit ever, but I can give it to you at a special price" "It's Daddy's special tabacco, now don't ask questions and go tidy your room." etc I thought that it would be witty. |

^ oldman, do you take these "lies", or what i would assume would be a better term for it, "misinformation" , personally? i can understand correcting a falsehood, but what's the point in getting touchy over it? most of these "lies" are due to ppl who heard things that seemed logical, but turns out wrong. it's good to perpetuate the truth, but pointless to get all bent out of shape over it.

i didnt mean it to be offensive, i hope its not. its just what ive heard in the past when sitting in a room full of stoned people. it could be true for all i know, im not sure the scripture says what type of bush was burning.

Lies is a strong word, but it does get people's attention.
Myths would be a more accurate word.

there are plenty of really amazing things about pot that are true tho.
like that pot was a part of the boghavat gita (lol sp?) and has been used in hindu and indian culture for thousands of years... and that a law in jamestown in 1607 required farmers to grow hemp. |

Do we have to have references and proof to believe something true? Is truth relative?

I am a materialist, and so a practical matter believe that physical truth is objective. The world of ideas (words), however, is a slippery, subjective mess. That being said, words can be corralled into fairly narrow meanings based on context and general usage. Or, going back to the original question of Christ using cannabis based on the words written in the Bible, I doubt it.

the biggest myth propagated by potheads is that dro is a strain. it is NOT a strain, it's a CROSS between g-13 and ben franklin's fabled crop.

I run across this one all the time:
"President Franklin Pierce wrote to his family that it was "about the only good thing" about that war" I WANT to believe this. But as of yet, I have not been able to find a source. Any help?
