TRUTH

Error, indeed, is never set forth in its naked deformity, lest, being thus exposed, it should at once be detected. But it is craftily decked out in an attractive dress, so as, by its outward form, to make it appear to the inexperienced (ridiculous as the expression may seem) more true than the truth itself. - Irenaeus

Pot the Miracle Drug

Complete with Psychosis and Suicide
Many of us that survived the marijuana of the 60s were shaking our heads in disbelief when all of a sudden it became legal across the country one state at a time.  We all understood the word "paranoia" from those early days.  Now it is a big revelation when young people that are playing with a drug that is ten times more potent than what we experimented with in the 60s drives kids to psychosis and suicide.  An article in The Epoch Times documents how the new levels of THC are producing a national crisis of addiction and destruction among young people.  So what we knew all along now requires studies to figure out how to cope with this "new" problem.  If alcohol and tobacco did not give us enough problems now we have a whole new breed of addicts driving our roads and teaching our kids in public schools.  Epoch Times told the heart breaking story of Johnny Stack whose consumption of THC lead to psychosis and eventual suicide.
Potheads will be the first to quote the Bible that claims every herb of the field and every tree is for food. (Genesis 1:29).  However some herbs are noxious weeds that we cannot feed to our cows, and some like hemlock will kill you dead.  Yet I have had some Christians justify the use of pot and one guy even told me he taught some of his best Bible studies while being high on pot. He eventually quit not because he thought it was wrong but because he was afraid it might harm his reputation or his job as a school teacher.  This is psychosis on the most deceptive level.
Like any placebo or sugar pill when someone gets a high it can be mistaken for proof that it is a cure.  Tobacco was once considered healthy and facts in the 1930s doctors were paid to endorse smoking as a cure for various diseases.  Any mechanic will tell you however that running smoke through the engine of your car without a filter will eventually cause serious damage.
There is no question that some medical drugs have come from toxic plants however if the reason one is using the drug is simply to get stoned there is the problem.  The Bible is loaded with warnings about drunkenness.  Drugs have a history of being used for occult religious practices.  The word pharmacy comes from the Greek word which is often translated sorcery which is condemned.

The Jehovah's Witness Deception Program

When Raymond Franz, a third-generation member of the Jehovah's Witnesses, finally broke free and wrote his book Crisis of Conscience (1992) inside information was revealed like no other time in the history of their religion.  Frederick Franz who had been a major player in early Watchtower development was his uncle.
What started in the 1870's as an independent bible study by Charles Taze Russell now covers the globe with missionaries and literature lead by the Watchtower organization in New York.  Their door-to-door witnessing program is a polished machine which preys on the naive who know little about the bible.  Their New World Translation in modern English has been translated to support the bias of Watchtower doctrinal views and few are equipped to argue with them.  The Watchtower still refuses to publish any names of the so-called scholars responsible for the NWT and scholars outside the organization are simply written off as tools of the Devil.  So no one could get it correct for over 1800 years until Charles Taze Russell came along.
But now it is not Russell who holds the keys to the kingdom.  It is the governing body of which Raymond Franz was a member for the last nine years of his sixty years as a Witness.  Then, he became a different kind of witness, one who exposed the power of manipulation and deception the governing body holds.  It was a painful "crisis of conscience" for him as it will be for anyone who questions the authority of the anointed class.
Members are reluctant to engage anyone in debate outside the organization for fear of being tainted by the spirit of the world.  Witnesses are forbidden to serve in the military and most secular government is considered part or the Devil's kingdom therefore is never trusted.  It is common for the JW's to aid and abet illegal aliens from foreign countries because there is little reason to uphold any patriotism for America.  Their only concern is the Kingdom of Jehovah and that consists of only members of the Watchtower.  Hispanics who have become disenchanted with their Catholic roots are easy targets especially if they happen to be undocumented citizens.  It never seems to cross their mind that the prophet Daniel served under a foreign king as did Joseph serving under the Pharoah, so why now is it that all government is of the Devil?
Witnesses are forbidden to receive a blood transfusion because of their belief that life is in the blood according to the bible.  Jesus on the other hand said, "Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends". (John 15:13)  Jesus not only gave a little blood but he gave it all.
