it's practically limitless medicinally speaking. there are many people being treated with it, and they don't get "stoned".. each strain has different cannabinoids, and different combinations of them produce different effects. we like to get stoned off the THC, but many patients don't want to be stoned.. they want the anti-inflammatory properties, or something to promote an appetite, or anything else, really. many don't even smoke it, instead opting for tinctures of whatever active "ingredient" they seek.

it's taboo to say it, but there is a bit of evidence that cannabis (especially in form of oil) was used in Jesus' healings. And really, I don't think that's outside the scope of possible reality.

And funnily enough, the Bible predicts a good herb's prohibition:

… And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. (Genesis 1:29-31)

God said, "Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed which is upon the face of all the earth.…To you it will be for meat."

"Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times, some shall … speak lies in hypocrisy … commanding to abstain from meats which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. (Paul 1 / Timothy 4:1-3)


Ahhh.. Research. The Weapon of Mass Awareness.
