Comments on: Marijuana Two-Minute Truths: Does Marijuana Cause Lung Cancer?

Tobacco’s carcinogenic properties arise in a large part from the plant incorporating large amounts of thorium from the soil into its leaves. Thorium is an abundant and naturally occurring radioactive element that is part of the uranium series decay chain. It decays to radium, then radon, polonium, and eventually lead. Radon and polonium are both gasses that can be absorbed into your lungs, then decay quickly and emit alpha particles which damage cells. I’m not a medical scientist, and my understanding of cancer is limited. However, it seems pretty clear that marijuana, which can be grown hydroponically, will not necessarily have these large quantities of thorium in its bud, and will therefore be less harmful to smokers.

You know what I find to be very weird? Some how the greatest country in the entire world is so hung up on not legalizing mj. Someone please explain to me what is the difference between acohol and mj? Also, which is more dangerous a $10 bottle of gin, or $10 bag of weed? TRUST ME I QUIT DRINKING… NOW I AM FAITHFULLY A WEED SMOKER.. ALCOHOL TURNS YOU INTO AN OBNOXIOUS IDIOT! … WEED ALLOWS ME TO LET MY HAIR DOWN AND GO WITH THE FLOW. IT’S ALMOST LIKE A GIFT FROM GOD. LOL

Ok…I am a Nurse a RN with a spouse with persian gulf syndrome complicated with clotting disorder, rheumatoid arthritis and ulcers…he has nearly died 3 times in the last 18 months and he is 43 years old…every medication that mainstream conventional medicine has and can give him is killing him…in January, we introduced him to MJ…and he lives…he works in his yard, he plays with his grand-daughter, he has had one flair of his RA and MJ handled that not just the pain but got rid of the inflammation as well…I thank God for this wonderful little plant everyday…it literally gave me my husband back to me…so if the devil has something to do with this then I guess I would thank him as well…but ya know for God Fearing people…you should know that God gave us this little medical miracle…it was a government wanting to stop Mexican Immigration that criminalized it…and they allow people who are dying and in excruciating pain a small amount of it to ease their suffering…they just want to control this wonderful thing…I know it has saved my husband…so…it will be in my home and cherished for the good it has done for us…

Okay, Steve, I want you to do me a favor. Before you go ahead and jump the gun, do some research. Research the subject and also it’s relation to the bible. Not that there is any real connection, but I can’t remember ever reading the bible and coming across anything that prohibits the use of marijuana. Everything else, yes, but nothing about that, I may be wrong but I think it also references the use in the bible too. Just do some research, my friend, open your mind and see what you find, you may just be surprised. The problem with people today is that no one opens their minds to possibilities. We are being brainwashed and controlled by a government that, if you look deep, doesn’t give a rats ass about you or your own. (SIGH), if only closed minds came with closed mouths!
