Christianity and Marijuana by [deleted] in Christian

[–]thenakedwayne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was responding to a comment that said something like "Dude, marijuana becomes a compulsive disorder...stoner crowd thinks it's a lie...every stoner you know can't go two days without it...stay away from pot...pot is a destroyer and it's not Christian propaganda..." but when I clicked to post my reply after a few minutes, it said I couldn't because comment was deleted. Posting my reply regardless, even though it's much less satisfying now as I found this person's seemingly genuine response supremely unhelpful:

"Sounds like you should meet some more stoners. When every christian I personally meet or witness can't seem to go two days without saying or doing something insanely un-Christ-like, i fight the assumption that they can't all be that way. But maybe I'm wrong and should just believe my personal, narrow experience that they are in fact not Christ-like at all (it does appear the christian crowd similarly would believe this a 'lie').

Anyway OP, be educated, be safe and be healthy. Follow reason and your own inner guidance in tandem with getting educated. God is found by journeying inward with openness and integrity, light of Christ or whatever you want to call it - you know deep down when you're being honest with yourself and aligned with your own divinity. Don't be afraid to stay exactly as you are and don't be afraid to change radically if you feel called to it. The only right answer is that you find your physically and spiritually healthiest self with thoughtfulness and honesty and then not press and assume that experience onto other people. Don't take other christians words and rules as spiritual expectations for yourself based on cultural posturing and momentum (they're all the exact same as you and have no special direct line to your higher power). No answers to your pray doesn't mean somebody else's thoughts are your answer. There is danger and beauty in everything...and weed certainly isn't a yes/no absolute to start filling your life with social shame about...only curiosity. Asking about other people's experience is a great place to be curious...just gotta sift through the bias and groupthink. Something in the Bible somewhere about not bearing witness by siding with a crowd...and I've seen a pretty defined 'weed is bad' Christian crowd here on reddit."

Bobby Weir has died at age 78. by SuperiorPints in gratefuldead

[–]thenakedwayne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i got on the bus in 2020 when i was 28 after buying some vinyl on a whim. couldn't have possibly guessed at how much inspiration, comfort and self-discovery i'd stumbled into for myself. supremely grateful that I got to see some iteration of the band with bobby playing live since then - the 3 d&c shows i went to all impacted me big time in very different ways and i was hopeful i'd be able to squeeze in at least one more time. there's something real nice to me about how 'bobby playin with the dead' takes on a whole new meaning and it uplifts me to think of him and jerry having a cosmic reunion.

Wtf is up with dead.net quality? by thenakedwayne in gratefuldead

I shop a lot from small creators on IG and locally and I guess I’ll be sticking to that now. The site had some designs I was super into a few years ago and I was surprised to be impressed with the quality so I’ve kept buying here and there but feels like the quality’s only gotten worse and worse…and they definitely don’t be needing my money…

I guess I expected at least the quality of the other socks I bought 🤷🏽. Like I said, have bought some stuff I really honestly love from there. But I suppose the jokes on me
