I see a lot of ignorant or self delusional posts here

Let's establish one thing

Weed contains drugs and these substances have various effects in our system. Any drug that can cross ur CNS barrier and affect ur brain is a drug to be wary of,check them alkaloids like opioids,hallucinogens and the rest.
So bottom line is weed is harmful,whether u like it or not it is harmful to the body,the smoke damages the lungs and generates free radicals that are harmful to the system,the effects on the heart,on several parts of the brain and the rest.
Are there people who use weed but still manage to "escape" the harmful effects YES
But u should remember that there a lot of factors involved so there is no certainty that the harmful effects would be very pronounced on on the short term,the point is that its harmful.
Steven Hawkings had ALS and following the normal prognosis he was to die in a short while but he managed to outlive all expectations, also some people have HIV but are asymptomatic for many years,there are variations to the way our bodies respond to these things.

Having said that please don't allow anybody misinform u,weed is harmful to the body,go and do ur research,there is nothing u can do about it Weed can cause u so many health problems if not now then in the future.

Now concerning Western countries legalizing weed,it doesn't mean the government is encouraging people to use it,it only means that the government has agreed to let individuals make the choice and face the responsibility of whatever choices they make concerning their lives,I espouse that idea. So the fact that Western countries are legalizing it doesn't change the fact that its harmful to the body,alcohol is legal in a lot of countries yet its one of the leading causes of liver failure.

This doesn't mean I hate weed,I know it gives one euphoria and all of that and of course its a very good feeling,so good that even in the face of morbidity people still consume it that's how good it is,but the point is considering its side effect ; addiction,dependence,mental depreciation, cardiovascular problems,lung issues and respiratory challenges e.t.c. I feel by my own assessment that the risks greatly outweigh the benefits hence I do not think I would use weed and I do not encourage anyone to do so,but then if u use use weed its fine just understand that the activity u are engaging in could actually be adversary to ur health and if the effect is not immediate it could insidious so as much as possible use it responsibly if at all weed can be taken responsibly

I've seen this post somewhere before Op u copied this

stagger:
Christianity is a not a religion. True Christianity is a way of life. The Pharisees were practitioners of religion, and yet Christ condemned them because they did not have love for God in their hearts.

How can you love God whom you cannot see, when you cannot love your neighbour whom you can see? You hate people from a particular tribe, you hate people because they are progressing more than you, you stab people in the back to climb ahead, you gloat over people's misfortune, you live in malice and unforgiveness, you are not a Christian even if you attend all the programs and services in your church.

Not all who call on God, will enter into the kingdom. Why did Jesus make that statement? Go figure.

Christians have a religious book
Check

Christians have an organization
Check

Christians use imagery and several religious depictions
Check

Christians observe religious celebrations
Check

Did I say Christianity is not a lifestyle ?

Can't a word represent two things.
You can say Christianity is a lifestyle or relationship and all what not,its fine,I don't disagree but the term "Christianity" primarily represents a religion whether u accept that or not.
If hey give u form to fill and it comes to identifying ur religion what are u going to fill ?

All these people saying Christianity is not a religion I don't know how u people think.
Yes Christianity is a lifestyle or relationship or whatever u want to call it but it is also a religion,the term "CHRISTIANITY" represents an abrahamic religion which originated from Jesus Christ. Whatever u wish to consider it as is fine but the term Christianity fits into whatever the term religion represents.
Christianity is primarily a religion !!

Besides football its both a game and a business,wrong ?

Bishop Chukwuma please call All saints Anglican church Agbani to order
I already tried my best by reaching out to the COVID 19 response team in Enugu state and I have created a thread on this topic but as expected the mods aren't interested in moving it to FP until people start getting infected and they trace it to the church.
Folks can u imagine that despite the whole fear and damage created by this disease a church still goes on to conduct services,infact the church has vowed to hold services every single day until the virus is gone but that's not even the area I'm most concerned with . The crazy part is this church still conducts Communion regularly with the same cup.
If you doubt what I'm saying ask around if you know anyone staying in Agbani,Enugu state. And I also learnt that a person showed symptoms of the disease in a neighbouring town,Ozalla and was picked up by the NCDC people, I'm not entirely sure I just heard that from someone but nonetheless the virus can spread from anywhere for all we know its already in the state and we don't know the exact number of people carrying it.
This is the most barbaric thing I have heard. And I'm crying out with all the strength I have in me cause I'm seeing the devastation this would cause .
Please if you are seeing this and u can help please I implore u do what u can or drop a number I can contact.
I'm definitely sure that there may be other churches like this around.
If you stay in Enugu and you feel you are safe I'm sorry for you,as long as this group continues their barbaric activity you are at risk, all it takes is for a coronavirus patient to step into that congregation, take the communion and all the hundreds of members would contact the disease and start sharing.
Please I'm pleading,I have reported to the response agencies I know of and no help seems to be forthcoming, u know Nigerians like to wait till it happens,if it were a serious country the very day I reported would be an end to this nonsense but here no.
If nothing is done about this,mark my words there would come a time that Enugu state would become ridden of the virus and by then we all would be lamenting,but now I'm raising this alarm and it looks like I'm wasting my time
