1. Now that Jeff "I Invoke a Bible I have Never Read" Sessions says we need a Religious Liberty Task Force, will he FINALLY allow the Rastafari Religion to legally use marijuana in their ceremonies and prayers? Their beliefs come straight from a Biblical interpretation....
2. ..in which they believe that the Tree of Life mentioned in the Bible is the marijuana plant and that several passages promote its use, such as Genesis 3:18 “Thou shalt eat the herb of the field” (Genesis 3:18), Exodus 10:12 “Eat every herb of the land” and Revelation 22:2...
3...which says “The herb is the healing of the nations” Rasti practitioners do not smoke to get high, which is considered inappropriate. they use is SOLELY as a religious practice. But Christians who scream when Jews and Hindus dont say "Merry Christmas" and demand forcing...
4...others to bow and cringe to their religion, see nothing wrong with denying Rastis a fundamental element of their religion which is straight out of a Biblical interpretation. That is because this "religious liberty" gang has NOTHING to do with religious liberty. It is about...
5...imposing their beliefs on everyone else, or using pick-and-choose standards to justify their hate (can't bake cakes for gays, despite the Bible saying nothing about gay marriage, but cakes for remarrying divorcees, which Bible condemns, is ok.) When evangelicals start....
6...focusing on their OWN sins, and not just smugly sitting in condemnation of others, when they fight for Rastis to be able to use marijuana in their ceremonies, then I might begin to believe they are something other than self-centered amoral frauds.

Until then..Happy Holidays.
