Japanese will kill as much whales as their ships can carry. There's noone monitoring them to see if they stay with their quotas. Only Seasheperd stays between them and death and destruction of these godly creatures. And only us to support seasheperd so they can succeed interrupting the killing. Best luck to you heroes!!

Thanks millions to all members of Seasheperd for braving the cold, spending your christmas and new year in icy cold waters to save the great whales. You are our heroes and we will keep on supporting you with our donations until this sensless, profit driven slaughter ends.

Still, even if I don't believe it, it's annoying to hear people preach about how should I live my life and conscequences if I don't.

Sure, but they are not threatening you for eternal hell if you don't buy their products.

So fear of God, fear of going to hell, is a right motive, but doing good without having no fear or belief is not? To me, whoever doing good because of fear of god is in a sense investing for their afterlife future. They are expecting something in return, place in heaven. Surely it can't be better than a person who does not believe heaven and hell, but still be good.

Repent, can I hear your opinion on my question too? Do you have to believe in God in order to secure place in heaven? Or if you don't believe, no matter how good of a person you are, the only destination is hell??

What if a person who doesn't do wrong, but still have no belief in God? Will they be allowed to the kingdom of God?

It seems very strange to me that at this day and age, people still believe religion. Haven't you seen the Zeitgeist? All religions are made for controlling uneducated masses. Wouldn't all mighty God know, sending different religions would create a problem among humans?

Nothing will happen. In my country, they say barking dog doesn't bite.

Exactely. This question doesn't deserve an answer. We love both wikileaks and file sharing software. Facebook is a bigger threat to personal information than any of these. But since it connects us with friends all over the world, we love that too.

I searched about the names you've mentioned, it would have been better to post some links instead. I was only able to to find Henquet. Here's the conclusion of his studies as below.
The observed deleterious effect of cannabis use on the prognosis of patients with psychotic disorder may involve the same mechanism as the observed deleterious effect of cannabis use on the prognosis of individuals with high levels of liability to psychosis.
So it's not causing healthy person to go crazy. You shouldn't do it because you maybe the type with high level of liability to psychosis, but not may people suffer from this. I stand by my statement.
About the cancer, we can argue days about this, there are reports that cannabis prevent cancer. But since we still don't know the cause for cancer in every case, it would be not very meaningful at all.

So what do you suggest? spying on everyone, all the time? As long as this is not your plan, whatever one does behind closed curtains, can't be anyone else's business.

Frungy,
I was going to reply to your long post with the counter evidences I gathered, but Venlo's post above says it all really. There are different people, experts in their fields giving conflicting reports for MJ use. One thing I know for sure is, any scientist or doctor that paid to investigate effects of mj in people are paid to come up with negative results. Anyone reporting possitive effects, or debunking myths are not paid to come up with these results and doing their own investigations. It's a simple plant that's been consumed all throught the history of man, until American's ruined it for the whole world.

And let me just add, when one of the respected scientists in UK came up and said that cannabiss is totally harmless, Queen has ordered her scientists to come up with reasons that why it's bad for you. They worse point they came up with was that cannabis is usually consumed mixed with tobacco and unfiltered tobacco was worse to your body than anything else. Plus, I know some people that would be dead several times if it was actually bad for health. I know some very old hippies that have been smoking all their lives. Their lungs are much heatier than tobacco smokers.

becuase the current law is too harsh. growing a plant for personal consumtion should not land you in a jail cell. Anything you do at your home when alone behind the closed curtains is noone else's but your business.

can you post some examples of these scientific arguments? Any science saying pot is more harmful to health than the tobacco is a science fiction.

From your comments, you don't seem mainstream to me at all.

The only reason pot can be a gateway drug, is because it's available at the same place where they push other dangerous chemical drugs. Making it legal and place it in the corner store will solve that porblem. Pusher's won't be able to push other drugs to innocent pot smokers. Can't you see that?
