Has anyone else read the Unibomber's manifesto. If so, what did you
think, etc? The guy was pretty smart and I think he has some profound
points in there, despite his crazy way of gaining attention.

you're right. short term memory is linked with psychology much more
heavily than physiology.

A strict naturalist is going to tell you that psychology and physiology
are the same (both governed completely by genetics)

my religious beliefs make me feel otherwise, and I think this is
confirmed by the obvious differences in addiction to alcohol vs.
addiction to cocaine or marijuana (or TV)

besides marijuana, you should look into how the government rejects
alternative treatements for cancer.

if you or anyone you know ever gets cancer, absolutely do not under any
circumstance let them given you radiation therapy. This is far worse for
you than the cancer itself is.

look up laetrile/amygdalin for yourself, it is a much more effective and
safer treatement for cancer (and it is illegal in the US and most of the
EU).

Just another thing they can form a black market out of for profit
exploitation.

no, i am talking about neural receptor increase. marijuana stimulates
the c-AMP cycle in short term memory formualtion and you grow extra
little buds on the neurons that find marijuana pleasing, so then later
you find it more pleasing... etc.

Probably the only interesting belief I have is this:

I believe that evolution is a scientifically untenable theory (you can't
believe that science is right and also believe that evolution is right)

Further, I think atheism is illogical (meaning mathematical logic)

I also think most religious (atheists included) people are too
intolerant of other beliefs. I also feel that one should have a
rationale behind every belief they propose to have.

Regardless of whether it is addictive or not, one ought to be able to
make his or her own moral choice about whether to use it. This is why I
am a libertarian politcally. I totally do not believe anyone should use
marijuana. But, you can't legislate that belief. I also don't think you
should drink rat poison or smoke or watch Gilmore Girls. But if you want
to do those things, you are legally allowed to. Thus, you should be
legally allowed to smoke marijuana. You should make your choice based on
personal ethics and logical reasoning, not legislation.

Drug legislation in the United States is solely for the purposes of
establishing black market. Black markets are extremely profitable to
governments owning them, whereas legalized marijuana is much much less
profitable (compare the taxes on cigarettes to the price of the
cigarette itself).

Anyway, I am studying neuroscience in school and marijuana is
biophysically addictive. So, if you think I'm not lying to you, then you
should take that as the final word on the matter.

Thanks!

By the way, if you want curry, you just have to drive the 1200 miles
from Maine to Indiana tomorrow when I am fixing it.

Alright, so I saw an asian market the other day and on a whim I went
inside. I got some mango, some coconut soda, some hummus, some tofu,
bean sprouts, noodles, and curry sauce mix. Any suggestions on what kind
of a meal (vegetarian) I can make with that?

Hey,

I thought it would be cool if everyone made posts about any interesting
trips they have taken.
