I am a Catholic.  We go to Latin Mass; not NO.  Going to Eucharistic adoration is not Novus Ordo.

“Catholicism according to VCR”? No. 

Natural Law of God is what we should follow. 

Medical data changes all the time. 
Eggs are good and next day eggs are bad.

You can’t trust liberal news or even conservative news. Same with medical news.  The same demonic people who say the jab is ok are the same demonic People promoting and legalizing pot. It’s not a good thing when SSPX is promoting and condoning the jab and are in mortal sin  and scandals just like the novus Ordo.   These bad birds of Sspx joined the bad birds of Rome.  Jesus  wants us to repent and sin no more. He doesn’t want us to be yoked with those who refuse to repent.  Fruits of the union with Rome is that they have chosen the United Nations and the rights of man when they should be choosing God and His Natural laws. 







The devil can twist scripture to promote mortal sin.  They are already twisting scripture to preach that Jesus was gαy and sodomy is love. Love they neighbor etc.


Good birds should flock with other good birds.

So which chapel do you attend where traditional Catholic birds of a feather flock together to gather and smoke weed after Mass? 

People like that can't function in the real world, where the rubber meets the road, they are like deer in front of headlights.

Where the rubber meets the road, the real world:

Ladislaus and Pax Vobis types - Dad, is it Ok to smoke marijuana and snort cocaine? We'll son that depends.................and on and on and on, never coming to any conclusion

Last Tradhican types - Dad, is it Ok to smoke marijuana and snort cocaine?
Keep away from the stuff son, like you would a rattlesnake or the devil. Do not keep company with anyone that uses them. In my long experience, all the people I knew that smoked MJ, lost all their drive, and turned out to be total losers or at best under achievers. But even worse, it is really harmful to girls, for it opens them up bigtime to licentious behavior and they will take the men with them.  Sins of the flesh are THE Sin that takes almost all mankind to hell. MJ is a piece of dung. Keep studying, working, and improving yourself your whole life, and surround yourself with others seeking the same. Avoid pot smokers like the plague, all they are, are people that can't handle life's problems without running away to medicate themselves. Remember your parents and grandparents who lost everything they had quite a few times and brushed it off as nothing and went back to do it again. THAT is what our family is all about!

Yes, so true! What you describe about marijuana above is true. I saw it when in high school in the '70's, and later with family members who smoked pot. One cannot improve their life if they smoke pot. Quite the opposite. And it leads to sin. 

I'm not a teetotaler. It's not really a Catholic thing to be.

If I recall correctly, it was Fr. Crane (whom some here don't like, and I understand why) who gave a good comparison, in a sermon, of alcohol and marijuana. Alcohol is used for several reasons. However, it is considered appropriate, by the Church, to use alcohol in moderation. Getting so drunk as to lose control of one's senses is a mortal sin. Getting slightly drunk is a venial sin. However, alcohol if used to just relax is fine. Pot, on the other hand (as Fr. Crane said) is used mainly to get high.

Of course there are medical reasons for using pot, but that excuse is over-used today in order to justify its use, in my opinion. I expect that your opinion, Mark, will be different. That's okay.

Res ipsa loquitur.

True, Viva. 

It is disturbing that at least one of the pot advocates here has made a religion (as you mention above) of marijuana, and is on a crusade to have it normalized. In reality, marijuana is snake oil disguised as a miracle substance given by God to save humanity. There are those who believe that it has miraculous or supernatural powers, which is a little too close to believing in the occult. Such thinking is not of God.

Marijuana cannot save humanity. Only Our Lord can do that.

Who was talking about MJ saving humanity?!
Go bake a cake, Meg.

Wrong. MJ use can be tempered, exactly like alcohol use.  And MJ has so many beneficial qualities, unlike alcohol.

The usual denial that there's anything wrong with pot. 

We KNOW that alcohol can be abused. Obviously. But there's a contingent on the forum (started by you-know-who) that insist that there are no side effects or addiction problems with pot. That simply is untrue. It can cause serious addiction, and has serious side effects. It can be used medicinally, as Fr. Scott says, but with supervision. For good reason. 
The reason for smoking pot is to get stoned. And when stoned, people do stupid things, some of which are sinful, as LT says. 

My goodness, you certainly spent a lot of time on your list, Mark. Thank you for posting my opinions on the subject. Saves me time.

Embrace your sins and hypocrisy—the Meg thing to do.

Embracing presumption of the interior forum of others: objectively sinful

Embracing prurience: objectively sinful

Calumny (lying about what others have actually said): objectively sinful
