But, please is there a non-stoner here who does that?  Theres those tibetan people... yea...    But other than that... A PORTION of peopple who go in drugs are already super smart and wanna find out MORE about the universe... and what better way then ingesting a plant that can make you access that information... and what makes you say stoners dont meditate or anything once in a while to obtaint it naturally... Its more about the desire of someone to obtain such altered mind state. I completely disagree with "people with small minds use them." Its probably the wisest people who realize. hek drugs arent bad... what is the meaning of "bad" anyways on this planet. we dont even KNOW the damn meaning of life. why give ourselves limits...

I think he was generally speaking.  I'm sure some people use marijuana to expand their minds and stuff like you mentioned, but that number is quite small.  If you are naturally creative, then why bother using a drug?

Drugs aren't "bad" but they can mess people up both mentally and physically.  I don't think marijuana is bad at all physically, and I'm not even sure why it's illegal, but it can mentally cripple users and force them to become almost dependent on the drug to have a good time (similar to alcohol).

I like the way you think man

... well, you probably doesn't know many progger... maybe they are GlassHammer fans, or something like that...

Drugs don't interest me at all.

I think, though, with my long hair and my strange music some people can get the wrong impression...

Yes I do. I know more people on drugs here than clear ones... ahh, la jeunesse québécoise de nos jours

I'm clean. Always have been, always will be. But that does not stop people from thinking I'm a stoner

Listen to tool's song third eye. The guy talking reminds me of Bill Hicks now that I think about it, not sure though.

Have you listened to the song "The End" from the doors. It's an amazing track IMO but surely a result of being alone in the desert talking LSD.

I'll have a beer when hanging out with friends (which unfortunately doesn't happen often - too busy)

That's it really. 

^ I'm not so sure about that. And I think it doesn't need to be legalized, I dont wanna the governement to put their dirty hands in it...

This is the only thing I will dispute. It most certainly DOES NOT force anyone to become dependant, and it hasn't crippled me in the slightest.

People who already have mental issues without drugs though, they should steer well clear, and this includes the religious folk.
