How Is It That People Believe Marijuana’s Disinhibitory Effects Are Beneficial to the User?
Question by Sam: How is it that people believe marijuana’s disinhibitory effects are beneficial to the user?
I’m not attempting to discredit marijuana completely, but merely trying to
educate those who seem to strongly believe that the social dis-inhibition that
comes along with regular and heavy marijuana use is somehow
“spiritual” or some ridiculous thing. I feel that it is a VERY misunderstood substance and that something needs to be done to educate the public of the harmful effects as well as the positive effects, so that we can have a more well rounded view of the drug. Firstly, I myself was a moderate to heavy marijuana user from the age of 13 until I stopped
completely at age 17. I am telling you this so that you don’t
discredit my words as coming from someone who has no experience with
the substance. Trust me, I have had PLENTY of experience with it, and
feel it is my duty to educate people about the potentially harmful
effects associated with it’s use. Let me explain why I stick so strongly to
the opinion that the dis-inhibitory effects of marijuana are pretty
much inherently negative and ultimately harmful to the user.

Is It True That Muslims Almost Always Reject Criticism of Islam?
Question by majordun: Is it true that Muslims almost always reject criticism of Islam?
11/21/10 VOA: The U.N. General Assembly committee that deals with human rights issues has adopted a resolution condemning widespread human rights abuses in Iran. The resolution was drafted by Canada and co-sponsored by 42 other countries. Canadian U.N. Ambassador John McNee, said, “The members of this committee cannot ignore Iran’s continued human rights violations: stonings, torture, flogging, amputations, executions of juveniles, executions by strangulation, continuing discrimination against women and minorities, and a persistent failure to uphold due process. Mr. Chair, these violations continue and continue to worsen.”
The response from Iranian human rights chief Mohammad Javad Larijani Larijani was predictable: “Let me make it quite clear that the United States of America is the mastermind and the main provocateur, and as far as the substance is concerned this text does not have anything to do with human rights and its promotion.” Isn’t that the standard response when anyone criticizes Islam? “You’re discriminating against us because we’re Muslims!”
