Thread about Prog for Drugs!

hdfisch wrote: bluetailfly: 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

Thanks for the clarification. My response at this point then is, why are you worried about it? Everyone here is a big boy or girl and I don't see anyone here trying to hurt anyone else.

Hdfisch:

I respect what you're saying but your approach is rather ignorant. Maybe you should ask yourself, "what is a dangerous drug?" instead of relying on the church's/parents/government's definition. If the thread had been "What types of liquor do you drink when you listen to Prog", I don't think you would have thought twice about it.

But someone says the words "drugs" and all of a sudden, your buttons are pushed. There are gradations of drugs, from sugar to pot to liquor to crack and beyond. So for you to have this self-righteous attitude about all drugs is rather offensive when you don't know what you're talking about.

Quite ridiculous responses I've to say, but ok I see this is obviously not the right place to say something against drugs!

Nobody forces you to use drugs. If you don't like the thread, don't look at it.

...

Although I do agree that such discussions are no way normal, knowing that children post here too.

Well one of them, Maani, has posted in the thread itself! So he obviously doesn't agree with you!

No ones advocating, we are discussing!
