Editor:
I agree with credible drug law reform including limiting the federal government’s ability to cage sick citizens for using cannabis (Editorial, "Marijuana case tests limits of federalism," Dec. 1), and wanted to add, further and most important, it is Biblically correct to stop caging humans for using the plant cannabis.
Our unwavering God said He created all the seed-bearing plants and said they were all good on literally the very first page of the Bible. I would also like to see clergy speak up for Christ God Our Father on this issue, since Jesus Christ risked going to jail to heal the sick.
The entire Bible is against cannabis prohibition. For example, 1 John 3:17 — "But whoever has the world’s goods, and sees his brother in need and closes his heart against him, how does the love of God abide in him?"
The Bible describes who will even propose such prohibition as those who "fall away from the faith," in 1 Timothy 4:1-5.

You could probably throw one in about God granting man "dominion" over "every herb bearing seed which is on the face of the earth," in Genesis 1:28-29.
Interesting.
