CHRISTIANS IN COLORADO ARE SMOKING HERB AND THEY LIKE IT.
AT LEAST DEB BUTTON AND HER RELIGIOUS FOLLOWERS ARE FOR IT.
SHE WAS AGAINST LEGALIZING MARIJUANA IN THE STATE OF
COLORADO, AND THEN ONE DAY SHE DECIDED TO TRY IT AND SHE
LOVED IT.
SHE BELIEVED SHE HAD A SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE AS A RESULT OF THAT
MARIJUANA, AND THEN SHE LOOKED THROUGH THE BIBLE TO FIND A
VERSE THAT AGREED WITH THE IDEA OF SMOKING MARIJUANA WHILE
DOING THESE CHURCH SERVICES.
SHE SAYS THE FOLLOWING.
"JESUS WAS PEACEFUL AND LOVING.
HE WENT FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE AND WAS ALWAYS ACCEPTED.
ONLY A STONE HER TO DO THAT."
THAT IS NOT REMOTELY TRUE, A LOT OF PEOPLE CAN DO THAT.
YOU JUST WANTED AN EXCUSE TO SMOKE POT.
OFTEN WE TALK ABOUT DIFFERENT INTERPRETATIONS OF THE SAME
RELIGIOUS DOCTRINE.
UNFORTUNATELY THAT IS OFTEN ABOUT SOME NUTCASE WHO KILLS
PEOPLE, BUT IN THIS CASE IT IS A FUN STORY, AND SHOWS YOU HOW THE
EXACT SAME RELIGIOUS DOCTRINE CAN BE UTILIZED FOR
SOMEONE'S CONVENIENCE.
WOMAN WANTS TO SMOKE WEED, YOU DON'T HAVE TO PRETEND LIKE
JESUS WITH A STONER.
"ONE NIGHT I GOT HIGH AND HAD THE MOST INCREDIBLE
SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE.
I'M SITTING IN MY LIVING ROOM AND A CANNABIS WAS KICKING
IN AT A HIGHER DOSE AND I COULD LITERALLY FEEL GOD'S.
I WAS FILLED WITH LOVE, AND INDWELLING OF LOVE."
IT IS NOT AN ACCIDENT THAT NATIVE AMERICANS USED TO
SMOKE PEYOTE AS PART OF THEIR SPIRITUAL, YOU KNOW, DIFFERENT
EXERCISES THAT THEY DID, AND CEREMONIES THAT THEY DID.
IN THIS CASE, THE GOOD CHRISTIANS IN AMERICA WERE
A GIFT POT, OUTRAGEOUS.
AND THEN THEY SMOKED POT AND IT WAS LIKE, DUDE, I THINK I
FEEL GOD.
A LOT OF PEOPLE OF SMOKED STUFF THROUGHOUT HISTORY TO FEEL
A DIFFERENT CONNECTION AND DIFFERENT FEELINGS.
AS I TOLD IN THE POST GAME, WHEN I SMOKED A LITTLE WHILE BACK AND
I GOT HIGH, I HAVE THESE AMAZING EXPERIENCES OF HAZELNUT
FOUNTAINS AND GOLDEN DOORS, AND SOMETIMES IF I HAVE A BAD TRIP
THERE WILL BE DEMONS, AND FEAR
IN THE CLOSET.
SO IT DEPENDS ON WHICH WAY IT GOES.
YOU ARE MARIJUANA STORIES ARE AMAZING, JUST BECAUSE YOU
HAVE SUCH EXTREME CLIPS.
AND IT IS BECAUSE HE TAKES EDIBLES.
NO, EVEN ONE TIME WHEN I SMOKED.
AND ONE TIME I MET BEELZEBUB.
NO, I'M NOT RELIGIOUS, BUT IF YOU ARE AND YOU ARE PRONE
TO HAVING THOSE OUT OF BODY EXPERIENCES, ALL MY GOD I
FEEL LIKE I AM IN HEAVEN.
YOU MAKE A REALLY GOOD POINT ABOUT HOW IF YOU ARE
RELIGIOUS, THAT PREDISPOSITION WILL LEAD YOU TO THINKING
THAT YOUR HIGH IS A SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE.
THE ONLY TIME I EVER FELT ANYTHING CLOSE TO THAT WAS ON
SHROOMS.
I HAD THIS WEIRD AWAKENING WHERE I HAD THIS BETTER UNDERSTANDING
OF WHO I AM AS A PERSON, THE THINGS I NEED TO DO IN MY LIFE.
THE THINGS AND PEOPLE I HAVE BEEN NEGLECTING, WHAT I CAN
DO TO MAKE IT BETTER.
SO THERE ARE HUGE POSITIVE IN TERMS OF SELF-AWARENESS WHEN
IT COMES TO TAKING OTHER DRUGS, OBVIOUSLY DO YOUR RESEARCH, KNOW
WHAT YOU ARE GETTING YOURSELF INTO, BUT I LOVE THIS WOMAN.
SHE IS LIKE, NO, I HATE MARIJUANA, WE CAN'T LEGALIZE IT.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT LED TO HER TRYING IT, BUT SHE TRIED IT
ONCE AND SHE IS SOLD.
CONSERVATIVES MAKE THE ARGUMENT THAT IF YOU
LEGALIZE IT, PEOPLE WILL TRY IT.
IT IS IRONIC.
ALL OF A SUDDEN SHE IS LIKE SAY BRAZIL, QUOTING THE BIBLE, GOD
GAVE US THE HERBS AND THE PLANTS
IN THE WORLD TO DO AS WE LIKE.
I'D LIKE TO GIVE YOU ONE MORE QUOTE, "BUTTON, AN ARDENT
CONSERVATIVE, VOTED AGAINST LEGALIZATION IN COLORADO,
BEFORE TRYING IT HERSELF.
SHE HAS NOW FULLY EMBRACED WEED, TURNING HER HOME INTO A BUD &
BREAKFAST."
YOU KNOW WHAT?
I LOVE HER.
. WHAT HAPPENED, SHE REALIZED SHE WAS WRONG.
THE ONLY THING ABOUT HER THAT ANNOYS ME IS THAT SHE NEEDS
TO FIND SOME JUSTIFICATION IN THE BIBLE.
YOU LIKE TO SMOKE WEED, THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT.
BUT LIKE ALL REPUBLICANS, SHE DOESN'T BELIEVE IT UNTIL IT
HAPPENS TO HER.
GAYS ARE TERRIBLE.
OH MY GOD, MY SON IS GAY, NOW I LOVE HIM.
BY THE WAY, THOSE ARE THE BEST ONES.
SOME EVEN REJECT THEIR KIDS.
OH MY GOD RICK SANTORUM, MEDICAL MALPRACTICE IS, NO BIG DEAL.
MY WIFE HAD A BACK PROBLEM, I WANT $500,000.
BUT YOU SAID THE CAP TO BE $250,000.
YEAH, THAT WAS BEFORE MY WIFE HAD A MEDICAL PROBLEM.
IN THIS CASE, WEED IS TERRIBLE AND WRONG, AND SO I TRIED
IT, IT NOW IS GREAT.
