well the truth is, we are not all that way. we are not all mind-controlled, close-minded, conservatives who believe you have to do as we say.


In my religion, there is no hell. I dont really want to get deep into it, but basically, its not my job to judge you, even remotely (ex. I cant even say "oh God will judge him as bad" I just accept you).


So my question is why does the government get to decide so many things for you?

the big thing I can think as an example is pot.

personally, I think its stupid, and it messes you up.

but, I have alot of friends who do it, and its there choice. Life is a gift, and they should spend it how they want, why should the government get to tell them what they can or can't do. and why should I judge them for what they do?


just my personal thought on the government controlling some things over people.
