Serapis interpreted most of what I had wanted to convey but also I was trying to point out this (above underlined quote). Marijuana is no "magical plant" it has cannabinoids present in it as a self-defense mechanism to protect it's most vital part of existence, the ovaries (Buds). San Pedro, Peruvian Torch, Peyote, Psilocybe & Amanita Mushrooms, Datura, Morning Glory seeds and various plants used in the Ayahuasca brew all contain psychoactive chemicals which are/were treated as holistic medicines around the world... marijuana is not some selective plant we were meant to live in a symbiotic relationship with. Also marijuana produces side effects from chronic use as well, now its not like going into a seizure from not taking your benzos but negative side effects can/do occur. The problem with most psychoactive medication in general is that the positive effects of it are derived from the "negative effects" of intoxication, an since marijuana has a less subtle intoxicating feeling compared to low doses of benzos and narcotics it is seen more as just a recreational drug. I have panic attacks and alcohol helps me way more than xanax does but it also impairs me more which is the reason why I can't bring a bottle of grey goose and a shot glass to ease my stress at work and than tell my boss "Uh... I'm taking my medication...". My summary of what I am trying to convey to all of you is, Stop viewing marijuana on a political level and from just your ethical and moral views; start seeing it and the drugs produced by the "evil" pharmaceutical corporations on a pharmacological levelWake the fuck up and stop talking shit about our magic plant of health and knowledge. We need you on the team! You're already here, pick a number and put yer fuckin jersey on!
