All the reasons we have given so far point to some kind of Christian morality as being the reason hallucinogens are illegal. Does that mean that Christians, who believe God created the Earth and all it's inhabitants plant and animal in a week, interpret God's word to say that hallucinogenic drugs are sinful and in fact immoral?

And you can bet the pharmaceutical industry isn't pleased with a drug people can grow in their backyards. The tobacco lobby isn't pleased with something that makes people feel good but isn't chemically addictive. In short, America is its own largest roadblock to legalizing these drugs.

That's exactly what makes me so upset. Tobacco and booze are legal even if it is proven to kill you either by lung cancer or cirrhosis, yet the drugs that can cure mental disease and aleviate pain aren't even available to study.
