A New York Times opinion piece by Jonathan Merritt discusses the Christian case for marijuana.

  • “America is sick, and the Christian call to compassion obligates the faithful to act. Chronic pain and illness now affect tens of millions of Americans, and in many cases the cause eludes the brightest medical minds…Christian ethics has long taught that the faithful must take an active role in caring for the ailing among us.”
  • He also quotes Several weeks ago on the WeedWeek podcast, Donnell and I talked to Evangelical cannabis evangelist Craig Gross.
