Dave, Thanks for taking the time to write me like that.
That Rogan piece i have, was given to me by someone. The person who gave it to me has a pretty big following in the internet 911 truth/conspiracy realm. That is the only piece of information like that which I run on my whole site. He wanted to remain anonymous. I am going to add a disclaimer to the top of that page today. I thought i already had that disclaimer but i just looked and it's not there. so i'm glad you brought that to my attention. yeah, thanks for telling about that silly message on there. I didn't see that. I guess I was impressed with the pictures and other links which i verified and missed the thing you're talking about.
The experience i was talking about regarding pot wasn't so much of an "experience". that might have been the wrong word. What happened actually involves a legal matter which is why i couldn't get into the details. But something happened and i didn't realize it until i stopped smoking marijuana. in other words. my mind was clouded from marijuana. that is a fact.
that video you are talking about it getting very heavy attention for some reason. I don't know why. maybe it's the way i combed my hair that morning lol I have no idea.
but let me say this. i smoked more weed than anyone i knew. for years i smoked. and i know first hand what it did to me and my friends. you only know what you have experienced in your life and so you draw conclusions from that experience. but don't judge me because I experienced something else. you know what i mean? think about it. it's kind of silly. I saw many of my friends go from pot and finally to crack. a few of them are crack heads right now in and out of NA meetings and jail. One died. They all started with pot. Now you may answer this with something you read on the internet defending marijuana and that would insult me. because i lived it. i'm not reading about it.
I never got into crack or heroin. but i still had a desire to do drugs most of my life. especially smoke pot. i smoked pot to take the edge off. i may have had some anxiety issues. after a while though the pot wasn't working. just because this is my specific situation and may not be myriads of others situations, that doesn't take away from the fact of my experiences with other aspects of marijuana.
When pot was no longer helping me, i really began to get upset and wonder how i could get rid of anxiety. at that time when i was barely able to deal with small issues my world caved in on me. it was like God opened my mind to this world conspiracy. and that was associated with TWA flight 800 and the other legal issue I was talking about before and some other stuff. It caused me to cry out to "God" (whoever that was. i really didn't know at the time) and He answered me and although i had a VERY light understanding of different aspects of Christianity, I was amazed by how warped it is by people who claim to be presenting it in this world. How was I coming to these conclusions? God was talking to me. "O my God you're psycho !!" This is the reaction I get. OK but I was delivered from this anxiety that was plaguing me for years. instantly. i was ADDICTED to cigarettes before this experience. Suddenly I was Completely set free from the desire (need) to smoke. It's been 12 years and I never touched another thing from that point on. I never heard of someone snapping out like that. i have a big family now and can function. And the experience was also connected to the Bible. now listen, this wasn't preached to me by anyone. i had a first hand experience. God proved himself to me to be real. Has He done it with you? No? well that doesn't mean it didn't happen with me bro.
As far as the legitimacy of the bible. that's part of this experience part. do you realize that my biggest attackers on the internet are "Christians"? Do you realize that most people who claim the name of "Christianity" don't really believe in god at all but practice a dead version of it? Or many are like Bush. total fakers. The bible says to do good to people. not kill them. not have sex with their wives. not steal. You said the bible is a control tool. i wish it was. life would be much better. no more murder. no more lying one to another. aren't these all the things this NWO practice that we hate? And if they practice the opposite of the Word of God which IS God don't you think they may be "anti God" (anti Christ) and if they practice these things which are condemned by God and you or I practice the same thing do you think we will be found guiltless on the day of Judgment? "Oh, there is no 'day of judgment', I already told you I DON'T BELIEVE in God" Well, God doesn't exist by the dictates of what YOU believe.
Here's a verse from the Bible that i believe fits right in to what i'm saying. It was said by Paul, the Apostle. (The specific verse is in bold but i have the other verses for the context which i ask you to read as well.)
22 Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars' hill, and said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious. 23 For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you. 24 God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; 25 Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; 26 And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;
27 That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:
28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring. 29 Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device. 30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: 31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.
32 And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this matter. 33 So Paul departed from among them. 34 Howbeit certain men clave unto him, and believed: among the which was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.
I never give answers like this to people. Just letting you know. But this video you are referring to is getting me a lot of the similar things you're saying. I was just a pot smoking, heavy metal listening dupe in this world until i had that experience with God. And right after I was set free from the anxiety which gave me the desire to smoke pot/cigarettes/drink alcohol I had a dream i was smoking pot. And i was disturbed about it. So i prayed and asked God why i had the dream. I felt the answer like "look into marijuana". Well all i had was a dictionary. So i looked up marijuana. I don't have that exact dictionary but I'll look to an online one.
- The cannabis plant.
- A preparation made from the dried flower clusters and leaves of the cannabis plant, usually smoked or eaten to induce euphoria.
So i looked up "euphoria"
