Marijuana is a creature not just a plant

True, Plants have been around a lot longer than we have. It does not follow that they have psychic powers. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. At least be able to point to some part of the plant capable of seeing, feeling , reasoning. Put forth a working hypothesis rather than a feel good manifesto. When the leaves are drooping and I give the plant water. It does not mean it was communicating with me. That is what a plant does when it is low on water and I was able to recognize it.

Have you watched ANY of the videos I posted in this thread? They are full of working hypotheses and actual testing with visual evidence to back up many of these "wild" claims.

What are those plants you mentioned, doing in your garden in the first place? Did you ever ask yourself that? You grew those plants....You were there for them when they needed water, etc. Not everyone grows plants...Why you and not someone else? :)

Many people who use plants, don't ever become growers. But when you do become a grower, you begin to feel and sense things about the plants you grow....well, at least some of us feel that we do! ;)

Read through the thread, here's some of my thoughts;

Plants communicate amongst themselves and other life through various means, including pheromones and terpenes.

There is a God and, at the very least, please acknowledge the fact that the "Bible" is the closest thing that we have to "the history of the world", except for Mel Brooks' "History of the World".

Before asserting that plants don't "think", be mindful of your interpretation of "cognizance" VS alternative levels of "thought" and "consciousness". Read up on Ophiocardyceps, might change the way you "think" about shit (anyone catch the double entendre there?).

"Top Gear" was my passion for cars, as well as random related, televised. I hope "The Grand Tour" lasts as long, if not longer. Simply brilliant.

I think I need another beer and another bowl.

Cheers mates, salude amigos, buenos noches, and I good you bid evening (intended). :bigjoint:

He was still just a "man". Could he have freed himself? Probably, but you have to consider that he was accepting his (intended/inevitable) fate (martyr). Another thing to consider, what we know to be "The Bible" has been altered umpteen times. That, and (by my own volition) it should be taken with a "grain of salt". Part "literal", with the rest being "figurative".

Eh, when a "nay sayer" gives me shit for drinking or smoking, I point out that Jesus turned water to wine, and it was considered a "miracle". I also point out that the first thing that Noah did was cultivate a "vineyard" in order to get "wine wasted". The men "closest to God" incorporate inebriation into their "miracles" and celebrations. All "evil" and repugnance were wiped from the earth by flood. Therefore, my drink and smoke are devine gifts from the Lord. Amen (not referring to all that Egyptian "stuff").

As in, I've never made the "biblical inebriation" argument to friends/family/acquaintances, just brought it up here for "rhetorics" sake (and I could go for some Kikusui right about now).

... I could go on like this (?) for hours.
