I have been thinking about religion alot. Since some people may be offended by this topic, I have decided to stay away from being overly opinionated. Instead, I will just talk about the extremes of both sides of religion. First, are people who push their religion. There are people who go to public places, including universities, and tell people their personal beliefs. Some people go as far as to criticize others. However, I doubt these people would like it very much if they saw someone pushing a different religion. On the other hand, there are also people who are vocal antitheists. They do essentially the same thing as people who push their religion, except antitheist denounce religions. There is nothing wrong with having an opinion concerning religion. The problem is pushing believing in a religion or not believing in any religion.

I have decided to start with a topic that has been surfacing lately: marijuana. Medicinal marijuana, that is. I am against leagalizing marijuana for any use, medicinal or recreational. Using drugs for any reason except if prescribed from a doctor is ridiculous. It only hurts the user and those that are around the user. Marijuana may not be the "worst" drug, but that does not make it good. I have recently researched this for a debate on this subject. People can be addicted to marijuana. Seven packs a week is equal to the amount of chemicals that are inhaled as five marijuana cigarettes. It can lead to the use of more harmful drugs. There are other medications that can be used instead of marijuana. It may ease pain and other symptoms, but it also may speed up the amount of time a person has to live. In other words, marijuana is all around gross and be useharmful. I have plenty more facts that I would love to share if anyone is interested, but at the moment I will leave you with this. It would be great to hear from someone who sees it from the other side.

Hey Everyone!

I have decided to create a blog based on current events and other happenings. Ideas of what to write about are greatly appreciated. I will be writing my opinions, but I hope to have people to comment who have opposite opinions. Debating in written form is always fun. I guess that is what makes me a Frantic Writer.
