Nobody has ever been able to explain to me how cannabis use is incompatible with Christianity in any way.
But then again, I don't expect Christians to be consistent or logical about anything.
Remember that part of the Bible where Jesus was like "forget all the old laws, and just focus on the point, being cool to one another" and then gave a speech about the importance of monogamy? Or when he held the last supper, demonstrating a way to worship without needing a fancy temple, and then said "this is my blood, I'm using a simple cup, but you should always use a gold chalice for this part". Or how he explained you need a relic of a saint (usually a bit of bone) in every altar or the magic won't work?
Do you remember the part where Jesus claimed he was the one and only child of a deity? Because when I read it, he called himself "the son of man" and called everyone his brothers and sisters
Jesus was born in July. The Roman sun god had a son, who was sacrificed for the sake of humanity. Want to guess when his birthday was?
There's a reason why it makes no sense. It's not the religion you think it is
