and weed!


LOL


i keep seeing drug references in various posts around here.

it is not funny damulta, because people are going to be looking around here to see what kind of people use these things. (it is not my aim to insult you). now, im sure youre an intelligent, gainfully employed individual since youre vaping and not smoking. it takes a certain kind of person to vape properly right now, with the technology involved and upkeep, troubleshooting, etc. simpletons would rather light a paper deathstick. we know this.

it just doesnt make this community look anything other than a bunch of degenerate druggies playing with their new toys. lets keep the drug stuff to ourselves and at least put on the facade that we are all the kind of people the government doesnt usually mess with and think inconsequential. isnt that fair enough?:confused:

edit: i just read the rule, it says not to talk about using ecigs for drug use. i think though that it is still important to manage perception in this and try to put our best foot forward. edited then, to make sense.

did you have anything to say pertaining to this thread or just want to express your undying love for your own thoughts..................I am all about creating a protected ritual around e-cig. Let's make this happen..I watch native american payodi rituals frequently.

From Britannica on line: jimsonweed
Datura ( in Datura (plant genus) ) Many are considered weeds in warm parts of the world. Of special interest are the thornapple, or jimsonweed (D. stramonium), the source of stramonium, a crude drug with narcotic and hypnotic effects; and D. innoxia and others, which have long been used by various peoples, including Mexican Indians, in their religious ceremonies.

Seems to be on topic to me. Vaping is safer though, let's go for it.

..as long as it doesnt involve god in any way shape or form. count me in. I dropped religion like a bad habit the moment i reached the age of reason.

i still think anything we chose to put in our body should be up to us and not the government so..yah thats my stand on that.

and just a quick question. say the ecig does officially become paraphernalia to deliver "drugs" ... whats the worst we can get? a written citation for drug paraphernalia? that will be so easily fought in court

Ok folks. This is key here. The OP's suggestion could work because vaping isn't illegal yet. So if a religion is founded based around it and they then make it illegal They are violating our constiitutional rights to freedom of religion. But marijauna and jimson are both already illegal. So it's a no go on those. See this difference? This might actually work. But if it does work whoever is going to found the church must A. be deadly serious and ready to go to court. B. Create the church in a legally binding and profound way (this can't just be an excuse to vape it's gotta be legit.) and C must do so very quickly. I will join this church and suspect that many others will if it is created properly. I would start it myself but have a conflict of interest as I work for a for profit business that is within the industry thus creating a conflict of interest. Same goes for the OP. We need a legit leader to start the church who DOES NOT sell e-cigs. This might be a great hope for all of us if someone acts on it! Experts where are you?!?
