Thread about Prog for Drugs!

So I guess you never drink a coffee in the morning to help you wake up...

Okay I'm not an expert on drugs and probably so are most of the posters in this thread. Moreover I give a f*****g s**t what government and especially church are saying, it's just my own feeling of responsiveness. And in my opinion there isn't something like non-dangerous drugs, including nicotin and alcohol. Maybe Canabis (that's probably the one most people have in mind) is less dangerous than these two legal ones at least as long it's not being abused, but still I would not consider it as harmless. And lastly I found the question of the topic alone provoking. If it would have been something like: Which Prog music is fitting best with smoking weed? I'd have found it only funny, but saying generally "drugs" which can be anything up to heroin I don't find appropriate here, sorry! I don't like to be a preacher and I don't mind smoking a pipe or similar everynow and then but I would't go to the public and say "hey folks when you listen to xy music you should take this or that"! Certainly no one is doing that here directly but it is somehow implied in the topic!

Just my opinion!Peace

Snowdog: I haven't read Maani's name anywhere on this thread as a poster!!! nacho:Whether using or abusing, drugs ain't good in any way in my opinion! Gentle Ronnie: As a collaborator I feel responsible to look at any thread whether I like it or not just to know what's going on! BaldFriede: This is a quite stupid attitude, of course anything could be as well lethal if over-dosed, like distilled water can be toxic. So in your opinion even in case of heroin or similar "hard drugs" it just depends on the dose. And of course you could control this really perfectly? I guess the posters here are stoned anyway!

Perhaps I'm mistaken then.I must be thinking of another thread!

This is completely out of topic, but you are the very first person I know that being almost 18 (in a few days, according to your profile) defines himself as a child...

I had done a lot of forbidden things at your age, but yes, I have to tell you that it's better for you to stay away from them...

Although I agree that the thread topic is provocative,I dont like the idea of any subject being taboo.Yes we have young people on the forum but there is far more counterbalance of opinion on the thread than these people would find out in "the real world."

The way I view the thread is that some people do advocate taking drugs,but most posters seem to be saying "be careful" which is good advice.A reasonable analogy is the one of adolescant sex,kids are going to have intercourse,lets make sure they take precautions.

Besides some of our more imaginative forum members are just playing the "pissing up the wall" game....
