As I write, this day Washington legalised marijuana use.
Predictably there will be a whole host of commentary about it, both from the secular media, and also from Christian pundits. What does the Bible have to say?
I suppose we must be honest and say that, taking a strict literalistic approach, the Bible says nothing at all about smoking pot. That said, there are certain obvious principles that clearly apply which cannot (or at least should not) be gainsaid. After all, the Bible also says nothing whatsoever about getting drunk on Martinis or vodka, but there are certain texts (Ephesians 5.18 springs to mind) that most pastors would not find too difficult to apply.
