Pot and Christianity

posted 23rd Jan
Is smoking pot a sin, where it is a legal drug? Are there limitations on what is acceptable and not?

My mom is a hardcore baptist and smokes pot. She doesn't believe is a sin. I know a lot of practicing Christians that smoke.

A lot of Christians pick and choose what's a sin based on their lifestyle.

I think like anything else used in excess, it can be harmful to the body/temple of God but was put on earth by God and IMO must have its legitimate God given purposes

Many Christians DO believe it's wrong, because it's part of the scriptures that say "Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's, and render unto God that which is God's" meaning that we should follow earthly laws to the fullest extent, unless they interfere with Christian teachings.

The only drug specifically talked about in the bible that I can find is alcohol. And from what I can gather the bible says to refrain of drunkenness and addiction. So wouldn't the same concept apply? Keep your consumption to a minimal level? And don't let marijuana run your life?

Pot was recently legalized in WA. And we have a friend who is very dear to us. He is working towards being a pastor and preaches to the community. He has been posting things about being "high" is being high, no matter how much is used. But IMHO he is being a hypocrite. Because he himself always drinks at family gatherings, BBQ's etc. his main point is weed is stronger now, than what god had plant in the ground. But alcohol is the same idea.

So he is getting majorly offended that I'm saying anything. I am honestly trying to learn more- but keeping logical. I'm not god nor Jesus. I didn't write the bible. So we have to interpret what we have or use our better judgement.

Thoughts?
