Weed is natural herb

stoners and their talking points. Weed today is not the natural herb it use to be. Which had THC levels of less than 3%. Yes you people who like to throw out the founding fathers smoked weed, they were smoking 3% if that.

Cultivated levels of 20-30% minimum is not a "natural herb".

It’s the decision to use either. That is the issue here.


Sure. But there’s obviously a quantitative difference between using a gun and using weed or using porn, specifically with regards to their effects on the brain.

No it is not the issue here. If it is you can then say that cars, knives, bowling balls, rope, axes, etc etc etc...name the millions of innate objects...are the same as watching porn and smoking weed.

Govt is never the answer

But when you have massive amounts of citizenry engaging in suboptimal behavior, its the only answer. NYC was a hellhole before Rudy Guliani. It returned to prominence despite all the cries about personal freedoms. Its now a hellhole again

The only question is where to draw the line

Our govt needs to put guard rails in for our society. Since the beginning it has been Christian guard rails. As a Christian that is what The Bible does for us.

Our nation was founded on Christian values, and built within its guardrails.

Unfortunately, the anarchist have been knocking those rails apart wider and wider.

Effects of Pornography on Young Men's Expectations, Health, and Mindset
By Luis Caballero and Parker Whittenburg

According to Australian Institute of Family Studies, “Pornography can influence a young person's expectations about sex, for example young men expect their partners to include anal intercourse, facial ejaculation, sex with multiple partners, and deep fellatio. Watching porn frequently can have the potential to paint an unrealistic picture of what sex looks like and can therefore lead to what experts call "sexual uncertainty" about sexual beliefs and values. This may also be related to sexual dissatisfaction, anxiety, and fear.

quote:

The 2016 Review of Clinical Reports noted that a drastic increase in erectile disfunction can be attributed to the development of pornographic websites. On the extreme end, a constant use of pornography can quickly lead a man to not become aroused by anything other than hardcore pornography.

quote:

“Pornography and Depression: What's the Link?” explains the increase of depression seen in young men who watch porn more often than those who don't.

quote:

One study published in the China National Knowledge Infrastructure noted that depression was highest in men who started viewing pornography at a young age. Men's perspective of women and other potential partners view partners as desensitized to intimacy because of heavy porn use, and treat them solely as objects. Men who have a diagnosed pornography addiction also often become unsatisfied with their partner's sexual performances by setting unachievable expectations influenced by what they view. This oftentimes leads to violent outburts.

as for this part.
The lefties, libertarians, anarchist will say that conservatives are leaving their "small govt" values, but don't realize that that doesn't mean we don't want govt to stick within traditional guard rails that we know are not good for society to allow in.

Ie, promotion of more and more intoxicants, porn, promiscuity, gay "marriage," etc etc

Its the people who pretend they can partake and not be affected who usually end up in trouble.

I felt similar about alcohol. Turns out I was wrong.

Pot doesn’t make any part of my life better. I don’t use it. I choose not to.
