Marijuana May Spur New Brain Cells By Steve Mitchell
October 13, 2005 United Press International Source:
Washington, D.C. -- Scientists said Thursday that marijuana appears to promote the development of new brain cells in rats and have anti-anxiety and anti-depressant effects, a finding that could have an impact on the national debate over medical uses of the drug.

Other illegal and legal drugs, including opiates, alcohol, nicotine and cocaine, have been shown to suppress the formation of new brain cells when used chronically, but marijuana's effect on that process was uncertain.

Marijuana Compound Spurs Brain Cell Growth

Marijuana Doesn't Cause Permanent Brain Damage!

"I think it's a bit presumptuous of people to think that they can improve on God's handiwork.
Why spend millions to find out what anybody who smokes cannabis already knows – that it helps people?"
- Free Rob Cannabis, UK cannabis activist

Now, a team led by Xia Zhang of the department of psychiatry at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon may have found evidence the drug spurs new brain cells to form in a region of the brain called the hippocampus, and this in turn reduces anxiety and depression. Steve Mitchell

Special Release 30 Years After Nixon's Marijuana Commission Advocated Decriminalization
Report Findings Are Still Valid Nixon Never Read His Own Report, President Bush Should

March 22nd marks the 30th anniversary of the release of the report of the so-called "Shafer Commission" -- the National Commission on Marihuana and Drug Abuse -- whose members were appointed by then-President Richard Nixon. The Shafer Commission's (named after commission Chair, Gov. Raymond Shafer of Pennsylvania) 1972 report, entitled "Marihuana: A Signal of Misunderstanding," boldly proclaimed that "neither the marihuana user nor the drug itself can be said to constitute a danger to public safety" and recommended Congress and state legislatures decriminalize the use and casual distribution of marijuana for personal use.

I read of this in my mail box today. Also some time ago I read that cannabis actually works as neuroprotector by regenerating brain cells in the hippocampus. Again, people with existing medical issues should be cautious, but this looks good news to me Smile

Add to that the fact that the human brain has cannibanoid receptors BUILT IN just waiting to receive the precious gift of love from cannabis! The prohibitionist look more ignorant by the hour as the war continues.

Police officers acquitted for beating a 64 yr old man recently in New Orleans. In the words of their defense attorney "all he had to do was comply"....and they wouldn't have fractured his face.

As Dr. Robert Malamede, Chair of Biology at the University of Colorado points out: "Cannabis kills brain cells...but ONLY THE CANCEROUS ONES!"

Rev.22 [2] In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life,
which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month:
and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

[14] Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life,
and may enter in through the gates into the city.

A study by University of Saskatchewan researchers suggests beneficial aspects of smoking marijuana at least among rats, who appear to have sprouted new brain cells and besides benefiting from reduced depression and anxiety.

The study's results appearing in the 'Journal of Clinical Investigation' have actually given a fillip to the traditional and mythological view that associates the addictive weed in some ways with immortality.

Gen.2 [9] And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight,
and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

Gen.3 [22] And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:

[24] So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims,
and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life

Prov.3 [18] She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her

Prov.11 [30] The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.

4Ezra.2 [12] They shall have the tree of life for an ointment of sweet savour;
they shall neither labour, nor be weary.

Rev.2 [7] He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches;
To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.

Study Turns Pot Wisdom on Head By Dawn Walton
Source: Globe and Mail October 14, 2005
Calgary -- Forget the stereotype about dopey potheads. It seems marijuana could be good for your brain. While other studies have shown that periodic use of marijuana can cause memory loss and impair learning and a host of other health problems down the road, new research suggests the drug could have some benefits when administered regularly in a highly potent form. Most "drugs of abuse" such as alcohol, heroin, cocaine and nicotine suppress growth of new brain cells. However, researchers found that cannabinoids promoted generation of new neurons in rats' hippocampuses.

ye have done it unto me." (Matt. 25:40)

Ganja Acts as an Antidepressant

We "shall not bear false witness" about people who use cannabis, nor judge them because that judgement is reserved to the Lord. The Lord hates those who speak lies and sow discord among brethern.

The Ganjawar Fraud...

For those people harrassed and imprisoned for using cannabis rightfuly, Jesus offers these words of comfort, "Blessed are those persecuted for righteousness's sake: For theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven."

Ganja & the Bible
Despite common knowledge and widespread scientific support, the federal government has for nearly 30 years kept cannabis in schedule 1 as a deliberate way to deny patients access to medical marijuana. This includes people suffering from asthma, cancer, migraine headache, chronic pain, spasticity, glaucoma, arthritis, and provides relief for many other conditions. As a result, people at various locations across the USA have had to risk and suffer years in prison for providing medical marijuana to patients as an act of compassion and personal conscience. What would Jesus do? He chose to break the law in order to heal the sick.
