Getting stoned and watching general conference...

Post by _Alfredo »

Among calls to embrace and exercise faith, I want to remind everyone that also embracing "evil" thoughts, exercising generous skepticism and perhaps, the right to manipulate our consciousness with intoxicating chemicals can all be very personally valuable.

Especially valuable in removing mental boundaries, facing your fears, revealing blindness and peeling back the layers of denial, for example.

I think I'm having a spiritual experience... This General Conference is giving me bad vibrations.

You are getting no replies because the title of your thread expresses utter disrespect for the sweet leaf. It is offensive.

At least watch Spongebob Squarepants if you're going to get stoned. Not effing general conference.

To each his own. I have a friend that told me he liked to "get stoned, turn on Fox News and pretend that it was the real news".

That being said, I would love to have a stoned and or drunk MST3K style viewing of Saturday's Warrior.

If I were to ever get stoned, I would want it to be at a protest, in the sun, with lots of music.

Wow. Please explain. Disrespect? Offended? I'm sorry... But your talk about the sweet leaf sounds suspiciously religious...

I can see now that Telestial glory will be comprised of cyborgs, the genetically modified, and the chemically dependent.

Chemically dependent? Don't you think this is more of a personal matter for me to judge? Please explain your reasoning... What do you think you know about me?

What the hell? Cyborgs? Genetically modified? What does that mean? I thought everyone gets resurrected with a perfect body, even the telestial people.

And "chemically dependent"? You mean like Mormon women hooked on anti-depressants? Or BYU football players hooked on pain killers?

For "worthy" TR holding members the only difference is that their chemicals are legally prescribed.
