# What are some Christian arguments supporting marijuana?

1 min. read

First argument: God said, I can eat any herb because Genesis 1:29 says briefly, *“Behold I have given you every herb to you, it shall be for meat.”*

But what about toxic plants or poison mushrooms?

Eating any herb in Genesis 1 was before the fall.

After the fall, sin corrupted the plants and creation.

Second argument: Marijuana is better than pharmaceuticals.

So what? In any health decision you make, are there alternatives besides sketchy meds and marijuana to protect your testimony?  When a lost soul sees you smoke, does it appear to be sober?

Titus 2:6 warns, *“Young men, be sober-minded.”*

1 Thessalonian 5:22 warns,  *“Abstain from all appearance of evil.”*

Is your testimony more important than help?

Revelation 12:11 says briefly, *“And they overcame him by their testimony and they loved not their lives unto the death.”*
