The issue wasn't a aggregation of how "harmful" the drugs were, it was chemical toxicity (as said so yourself), and so you should marginalize any difference in psychological dependence.


With that said, while I was likely wrong in claiming that MDMA is substantially more dangerous to a healthy brain than weed, your counterclaim that "mdma is less chemically toxic to your brain than thc" is clearly incorrect as well.

the marginality is surely affected by the dependence factor, though?

essentially you are being selectivist; that, or you're consuming weed in some sort of psychological vacuum where dependency is an impossibility

plus my point still stands... stoners blaze several times a week... MDMA consumption is maybe once a month, if that

so lets not talk about who is poisoning their body or ruining their mind more, eh?

it's not that argument though, is it, you moron.

i didn't even drag the whole 'compare drug use!' shit - i merely posted the scientific defense of stupid inane, misinformed jibes

i was going to say to sonder re: steroids... they're still way fucking unhealthy

don't be deluded by the fact they score lowly on a chart... it's still a chart of DAMAGE in physical/mental senses

some poisons are less strong than others, that's all. you've got to weigh in the pros and cons.

I would think not, given that they have separate axes on the graph.

I'm not a stoner, hence I'm not arguing from the perspective the drug is being used several times a week. I can't say because I don't have the experience, but as many pot smokers here have said, it's easy to smoke casually (once a week) if you have self-control.

erm nuk are you incapable of reading basic graphs?

further across and further high up together = more dangerous

placing on the x and y axes at the same time, THC is more 'harmful' than MDMA

besides your argument was that MDMA 'rots your brain', as if it's some super toxic chemical... when in fact it's less dangerous, overall, then THC
retard, cannabis has a high dependency, extasy is more harmful.

fatal dose stats don't mean much when it comes to toxicity and pharmacology... that's just for the drugs potency

Exactly - Risk of short term death and actual long term harm are two entirely different measures.

oh christ not this fucking shit again

"find me ONE study that PROVES marijuana is dangerous"

look dude i am of the opinion that any drug you take for a long enough and sustained time will fuck you up, period

it unbalances your bodies natural chemistry and jacks your brain. it's that simple.

take drugs 'recreationally' every few months or so, sure.... get blazed off your face everyday, i wouldn't recommend it

whether you want to admit it or not, getting high every day ruins your head

Uzique's right. Anything you take into your body that causes a chamical imbalance will effect you negitively in some way.

There are tons of studies that show the negative effects of marijuana Hell there are studies that show the negative effects of lots of things. Certainly marijuana couldn't have slipped throug that roadblock un-noticed.

Not that I think there needs to be "a link to a study", I speak from experience. A dude I knew had problems with addiction and he smoked a lot of pot. Completely fucked his short term memory. It was a shame because he's essentially a good dude but smoking as much weed as he did ruined him. He lost his wife and his kids. This story isn't unique either.

I'm not against marijuana smoking, I've done it myself. It's certainly not something I wold engage in regularly though and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else either.

Do people really believe that marijuana has no negative effects? Do they really believe that injesting a chemical that alters your mental state can only effect you positively? Get real.

There are hundreds.

For a start it has a very big impact on your lungs. It also diminishes your ability to cope with the onset of mental illness.
