All of these studies say the same thing. It causes "abnormal" changes. Not sure about you, but in today's world I would take that as an extreme positive. Normal seems to be the problem.

Why spend time and money sneaking Florida into the water when people will thank you for letting them become passive and stupid on weed?

And all these people claim to be so brilliant and potheads, really don't understand how research works, they know not understand that the danger in pot is that unlike other drugs it impacts the entire brain.

Oh some people like arguing just for the sake of arguing. While others are genuinely uninformed and willing to stay that way.

Fact of it is, pot is less harmful than alcohol and tobacco, and a plethora of other substances legally gotten in any gas station or ABC store.

That is not to say that overuse, as with anything, will cause some damage to the individual.

The fact that the results on the impact to health are, to this day, ambiguous, says a lot in and of itself.

The results from similar studies on say tobacco or alcohol, are clear as day, with them having major negative impacts to brain function and health.

Been a heavy user for 30 year. My IQ was taken in 4th grade. It was 143. I took another iq test for vocational rehab. It is 145. I don't see any evidence. You'd think 30 years of being high every day would have some effect. Guess not.

Re: Smoking weed lowers IQ. Scientific evidence found.
And you gotta think.

If this was true, then the Washington D.C. lawyer who has been the only individual (almost) receiving medical marijuana for around a decade or so now.

He'd be completely fucking retarded.

You propaganda spinners are useless for your planet, you're helping a satanic sect destroy all innocent life so you can then claim this planet as "condemned" and sell off all the life as a slave import/export.

Ya, "rapture" me.

Everyone knows this is about racism and the paper, pharmaceutical and law enforcement monetary and societal gains.

It's about CONTROL.

Tell me.

You can drink alcohol and smoke tobacco cigs to the point where your brain melts out your ears and you're visibly and consciously unable to talk. Not because you're drunk, but because you got so drunk, so much, that you have alcohol syndrome, AKA brain damage.

Along with emphysema, cancer and other problems.


You can SEE these things.

Now, you can SEE, THAT MARIJUANA CAN CURE DISEASES AND ILLNESS. CAN TAKE PAIN, FIGHT CANCER, IT'S BEEN PROVEN BY DOCTORS, REAL DOCTORS, AND SCIENTISTS, REAL SCIENTISTS. NOT SOME STORY THAT JUST-SO-HAPPENS TO BE FUNDED BY THE SAME PEOPLE WHO ARE AGAINST IT.

YOU CAN SEE THESE THINGS. NO ONE NEEDED ANY TECHNOLOGY TO SEE SOMEONE CURE THEMSELVES AND LIVE WHEN THE DR.'S ARE KILLING THEM (FOR MONEY, KNOWINGLY, IT'S A SATANIC SECT, WHY DO YOU THINK "SKULL AND CROSSBONES" IS A BIG WIG FRAT GROUP THAT PUMPS OUT SATANIC FRAUDS?)

Now, some group releases fake ass MRI images to try and get a point across that they don't want people healing.

Now how fucking blind do you have to be to not realize they just made every last bit of what they're selling you up, it's funded by big tobacco, pharma, alcohol and law enforcement, the people who simply put, make all their money off of selling/dealing with weed or drugs in some way shape or form.

This happens every couple years to fight the truth.

But the open demonstration of cannabis smokers, obviously being smarter than the people that make or sell these stupid stories will stand through the test of time.

Re: Smoking weed lowers IQ. Scientific evidence found.
nonsense....

You could say the same thing about alcohol. Try taking an IQ test after heavy drinking. :wtf21:

Of course as with alcohol the effect would be TEMPORARY.
 Quoting: Agent Smith 2014


Opposite.

Alcohol kills the brain cells that don't come back.

That's why if you get alcohol syndrome, AKA brain damage, you are stuck for a while.

There has been no evidence of marijuana causing damage.

What is happening here.

Is that marijuana use changes the way the brain works.

They're taking these changes and saying, "OPS! somethings' different! They're gonna die! They're dead and dying! It's brain admage!"

Meanwhile.

if you actually look at an mri from big cigg and alcohol abuse.

There is literal, absolute, brain damage. Not changes. Not hormonal disruptions. Not difference in flow, charge and distribution of work. They go fucking retarded, and need to be fed with a little kiddy spoon because they'll spill it all over their chin like a person with dementia.

This is plain to see.

Does the fact that every other person in the world reports this not mean anything to your ability to research and take in knowledge?

This means you're not researching, but "selectively" attaining information. That is part of bad science.

Thanks for the article OP, Can you tell us how Fluoride, GMO foods, Chemtrails, chemicals in every commercial product on the shelves, man made chemical medications effect the brain? Can you tell us what Sugar does to the body and why half the people in the US are taking more than one prescribed drug just to function? Can you tell us why alcohol is sold on every street corner and especially in the low income areas? Can you tell us why the one herb that heals Cancer and helps detox the body of prescribed narcotic medications is illegal? Do you really think it matters about IQ when the rest of the stuff I mentioned are destroying the body, mind and soul. If your IQ is high then you will see everything I mentioned above and stop listening to the ones who support the chemical based society.

Those all lower IQ, reduce creative capacity, reduce free-thinking (as a result), increase likelihood of depression and hormonal imbalance, reverse the gender of men and reinforce the gender of women, cause illness and disease in both sex because of the extra hormonal effects (pseudoestrogens like BPA), damage the body's tissues by creating free radicals, damage the brain's tissue with free-radicals, damage the digestive tracts ability to cope with build up of materials, yeast/candida, the wrong bacterial balance, etc etc.

Ultimately it kills you slowly, but surely.

An article you found on Yahoo finance, huh?

Seems legit'.


Keep accusing the smokers of the "God" plant of being lazy and of having low IQ while you consume your industrialized, artificial foods, pharmaceutical drugs, fluoridated drinking water, caffeine, aspartame,, propylene glycol, and your wonderful array of GNC supplements.

When one of your children develops autism from mercury poisoning you can blame that on the all the evil marijuana smoke that contaminates your air and water supply.

And you can see this with the "things" like potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate, HFCS (yeast extract, flavorings, autolyzed yeast, MSG other names etc etc), MSG, artificial flavors, artificial dye (die), colorings, processed wheat and processed/refined (white) sugars, processed milk and dairy, aluminum leeching, mercury, fast food, low quality foods, lack of vitamins from raw vegetables and good quality meats if you eat lots of meat. Lots of meat.

Etc.

;) It's a beautiful world. For everything bad. There is a good version! It's amazing! Most of the Natives/still-lithic tribes around the world have avoided modern illness and insanity.

The Amish people of the American country are literally the true "Natives" of the original Colonizers!

The first group had a group that could tell something was awry from the start and had chosen to specifically separate themselves, their families and their way of life/leadership from the American Country altogether!

And look at them now! They sometimes or don't use technology. Their phone is an old wooden phone booth way out about a 5-10 minute walk from their main living house. Everything else they use is spread out over many acres across their family's land and possibly other Amish family's land. Lot's of land. The children build their own school and maintain it. Everyone learns to produce something. If you want something, you got the person who makes/manages that sort of thing, the expert, or you do it yourself.

Amazing.

if drink coffee after token, it will take away the mental slowness. It is not that you get dumb, it is the time you take to compute things in your head. The margin is not to wide, 10s to 30s delay. Sometimes my thoughts are deeper beccause I take longer to compute things. I thought of some crazy shit like science experiments and business ideas. I havn't done anything yet. Maybe I will use kickstarter to get startup money. This thread just motivated me. Sometimes I dream of concepts at night. I literally had a dream that I created free energy using gravity.
