   Yes, and being a user of cannabis, you are completely unbaised, yes?

   If I ask that junkie in the street, he might say pot is a
brain-eating drug.

   You recognize nothing because of your bias. Sure people might not
think you act wierd, but then they are probably smoking the same shit
as you are.
   I've seen what drugs to people, and have heard discussions, and that
is why I don't do drugs, and can work and live.

   Pot is a hard drug. It is a classified substance. It is ILLEGAL.
That alone should keep you from indulging in it. 

   And crossposting is censorship, moreso than moderation. Crossposting
was the Church ladies who interrupted Catholic services (member that
Mr. Grubor?) Drowning out someone speaking is preventing him from
speaking. And no "Well, he could be heard at a distance of ten inches"
doesn't count.
   The one thing to remember about moderation is that there are other
places to discuss items. No, you don't need to discuss the heresies in
the Bible in christnet. No, you don't need to crosspost into
alt.promisekeepers.
