Good point.

Imagine if a parent put a fantastic looking pot brownie on the middle of the dinner table and told his kids not to eat it because if they did it would be very bad for them, but they did anyway. I wonder who would get blamed for that?

it's even worse than that

suppose they also put somebody in the room telling the kids it would be yummy

Adam and Eve weren't kids ....

you sure about that?

i've always imagined them as inexperienced innocents

 

[shagster01]

Adam and Eve weren't kids and thats the problem with that kind of poor logic.

They had no knowledge of good and evil, so how would they understand that disobeying God would be evil?

you sure about that?

Then you imagine that they did as they did without having been led to why by God and that God punished them and all mankind for doing something they could not even begin to understand the results of?

Then you believe God the actual author of sin?

Fourth graders busted for selling pot at elementary school Re 9:21

I went to that school 20 years ago and kids were selling it then too. I was introduced to it in 5th grade at that school. It just wasn't printed about in the paper until legalization happened.

What a horrible school you attended.

What a horrible school you attended.

Not as bad as when I moved on to John Evans jr. High. It was gang ville.

Were your parents aware of that?

 

[shagster01]

Were your parents aware of that?

Yeah but there were only two options on town at the time other than private schools and the other one was out of our zone. We were on food stamps so there was going to no going to private schools.

We made drug deals under the desks in science class.

I don't think they realized how bad it was but they knew there were some rough folks there for sure.

Wow, im sorry they didn't home school you then or move away from that.

My parents were divorced and both putting themselves through school while working full time. There was no other option. It isn't easy to just pick up and leave town sometimes.

I was essentially raising my younger sisters, waking them up in the morning, making sure we all ate and got to school. It matured me real fast. But I'm glad I went to those schools. It taught me a lot about standing up for myself and how the world really is. Plus, I got to get married to my high school sweetheart, so I'm glad I didn't move away.

My family is well off now. We pulled ourselves up and I wouldn't have had it any other way.

And my kids attend a charter school.


But my point in all this was that nobody cared about what was going on in these schools until about a year ago when they could use it as anti-legalization material.

Wow. :noway: Did you grow up in the hood?

I hadn't seen or heard of drugs until high school. I overheard someone say that someone at a party had cocaine. :listen: It terrified me and I got out of there quickly. :granite: I wasn't going to do drugs but I also didn't want to be around those that did. I feared the police would come and I would be hauled off with the rest of them (Ro 13:4).

I live in Colorado :zman: so this reaction would be laughable today.
