barleycorn Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Yes, but having appetite to eat is necessary for sustenance. It is, but why choose something nice and tasty when it's perfectly possible to survive on bland, tasteless food? jb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Night Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 In case you were wondering, theobromine is a dimethyl xanthine drug. In fact it's the original "food of the gods" (theo+broma. Is that before they went on Nectar and Ambrosia? ---------- Post added 28-02-2015 at 19:58 ---------- You're a drug user too. Welcome to the club. But are those drugs harmful and illegal?

Magilla Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 (edited) Utter rubbish its perfectly harmless ask all the dealer/users on here The point you're making is now so weak that you have to resort to childish unfounded insults rather than be able to actually debate the issue? ---------- Post added 02-03-2015 at 11:39 ---------- Using it in cooking though appears to have the same aim, that is to affect the function of the mind. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabis_foods A bit like a nice glass of wine, or pint of beer. ---------- Post added 02-03-2015 at 11:40 ---------- Whoooooosh!

Cyclone Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 But are those drugs harmful and illegal? These two things, harm and legality are not at all related. Alcohol is clearly harmful when taken in excess, nicotine is just harmful full stop. Cannabis is less harmful than both of these legal drugs. ---------- Post added 02-03-2015 at 11:48 ---------- Not the brightest light on the Christmas tree are you. ---------- Post added 28-02-2015 at 19:48 ---------- So you're handed a menu and you always choose least tastiest item; Hmmmm:suspect: Strange. No, that's entirely the point he's making, one that you've apparently not understood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you supply evidence to support your claims or will still disagree if the programme tomorrow nights shows clinical evidence to contradict yours biased views. Oh and can you tell us the difference between the drugs in chocolate and cannabis? ---------- Post added 02-03-2015 at 12:04 ---------- Quote:Originally Posted by carosio View Post Using it in cooking though appears to have the same aim, that is to affect the function of the mind. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabis_foods A bit like a nice glass of wine, or pint of beer.i: Not a tall like a glass of wine or a pint of beer They are legal.

Magilla Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 (edited) Not a tall like a glass of wine or a pint of beer They are legal. The quesiton I asked you several pages ago was that since they're more dangerous than cannabis (as per the link I posted that you ignored), should they be? Here's that link you ignored 3 times again:- http://www.independent.co.uk/news/wo...-10066496.html You're suspicously good at avoiding the elephant in the room, why is that? Bit of an alchy are you? Be interesting to see what happens after tomorrow night TV programme. Judging by Channel4 news comments on it, Jon Snow will have a bad time. The scientist who conducts the experiment goes on to explain that this response is uncommon:- "After inhaling a moderate amount of cannabis (about a third of a spliff) or placebo, volunteers carried out a range of tasks, some outside and some inside a brain scanner. These tasks were designed to explore potential positive as well as negative effects of the drugs. We used a technology known as functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI); a way of looking at patterns of brain activity while subjects perform various tasks. This kind of technology is necessary in order to understand the effects of cannabis in the human brain, although a downside of this approach is that subjects have to lie very still in a narrow, noisy cylinder for about an hour. Some people find the scanner quite claustrophobic even when they haven’t taken a drug. Jon Snow’s very negative experience was therefore understandable even though it was uncommon. The vast majority of our volunteers completed the brain scanning session and all the other tests, and many of them said that they enjoyed the experience on cannabis more than on placebo. Jon himself carried out all the tasks outside the scanner and apologised profusely that he couldn’t tolerate being inside the scanner." http://www.theguardian.com/science/blog/2015/feb/23/jon-snows-on-skunk-the-cannabis-trial-channel-4 The rest.. we'll have to see. Judging by past performance I doubt you'll be making any intelligent posts on the matter though. I'll be thinking of you (if I get time to watch) entering an appoplectic state when it's not all bad Edited March 2, 2015 by Magilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can definitely supply evidence, my views aren't biased at all though. http://medicalmarijuana.procon.org/view.resource.php?resourceID=004477 Not a tall like a glass of wine or a pint of beer They are legal. Legality doesn't alter the level of harm. The British peer-reviewed journal Lancet published a study titled "Drug Harms in the UK: A Multicriteria Decision Analysis" on Nov. 1, 2010 which ranked 20 drugs from alcohol to marijuana to tobacco based on harm factors. The study concluded that alcohol was the most harmful drug overall (72 out of 100), followed by heroin (55 out of 100), and crack cocaine (54 out of 100). The most harmful drugs to users were crack cocaine, heroin, and methamphetamine (scores 37, 34, and 32, respectively), whereas alcohol, heroin, and crack cocaine were the most harmful to others (46, 21, and 17, respectively). Cannabis (aka marijuana) had an overall harm score of 20, putting it in eighth place behind amphetamine (aka speed) and before GHB (aka liquid ecstasy). I suppose you're going to try to dismiss this research somehow, but the evidence is quite clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
