Nicholas Copernicus and Galileo Galilei were two scientists who printed books that later became banned. Copernicus faced no persecution when he was alive because he died shortly after publishing his book. Galileo, on the other hand, was trailed by the Inquisition after his book was published. Both scientists held the same theory that the Earth revolved around the sun, a theory now known to be true. However, the Church disapproved of this theory because the Holy Scriptures state that the Earth is at the center, not the Sun. As the contents of the Bible were taken literally, the publishing of these books proved, to the Church, that Copernicus and Galileo were sinners; they preached, through their writing, that the Bible was wrong.
500 years later, the humanity faces again the power of the law and order of the governments to impose to the citizens to believe what they wants us to believe. According to the DEA (Drug Enforcement Agency) in their latest statement, Cannabis is as harmful as Heroin, Cocaine and LSD and has no medical value.
Well, the elite of the medicine around the world has spoken up about the benefits of the Cannabis.
Local governments within the US have challenged the blindness of the federal government to free a plant that do more good than anything else. The US government itself have patents of its own!
Several countries have legalized cannabis regardless of the UN global agreements, while millions of sick people must go underground to get a joint to relief pains while organized crime does not pay any taxes or whatsoever. The great experience and examples in Colorado and Oregon are simply awesome!
The inquisition that hundreds of jailed souls face around the world for smoking a joint is just that, an inquisition. The governments consider the cannabiers the modern witches that only deserved to be burned while their lost war on the drugs keeps going and growing.
In Australia, the government asks repeatedly that they want "experts" to validate and revalidate the benefits of the cannabis before they proceed to abolish the prohibition. The local states that the cannabis has been "freed" for doctors to prescribe it, and the rules and procedures to actually prescribe the plant are almost impossible to be implemented. The fact of the matter is that politicians are doing what they do best... The only true experts on cannabis are the hippies and the narcos who have been underground for the last 100 years because the prohibition has done so much damage and proper research has been full of obstacles of all kinds while the true experts are still being chased to be burned in the bum fire. Of course, great knowledge has been gained in all places where the legalization has prevailed but we are a long way to go. This is a technological race while fighting a political battle.
May the light of knowledge strikes the ignorance of the politicians. We the citizens believe in democracy and must keep the torch of freedom lighten up.
Legalize it!!!
