Marijuana and the Goddess
Roman Catholic Persecution
In early Christian times, the holy cannabis oil was ingested and used by many Gnostic Christian sects, in honour of the Queen of Heaven.
With the rise of one of the more harshly ascetic and anti-female Christian sects in Rome, and the subsequent development of the Roman Catholic Church, such groups were forced out of existence, along with most pagan religions and the cult of the Great Mother.
The new Church of Rome followed their Judaic predecessors in naming Eve (the representative of all women) the "Mother of Sin", as well as demonizing magical plants.
Their violent purges of Goddess worship and magical plant use persisted into medieval times. It has been estimated that over a million female practitioners of the older Goddess religions were burned as "witches" for utilizing cannabis, mandrake, belladonna and other plants in their "flying ointments".
Even medieval French heroine Joan of Arc was accused of using cannabis, mandrake and other plants in order to hear the voices which guided her, and this eventually led the church to commit her to the flames.

That's one of the things I like most about this site: the freedom to openly discuss the true nature of the origins of certain propaganda machines, (ex. the christian church).
If jews, christians, & muslims were to truly understand that the "divine inspiration" of their prophets, they might be surprised.

...and, the Big Three (Judaism-Christianity-Islam) have missed out on an important element of Spirit: Goddess Energy.
It shows.
