Well, anyone who drinks or smokes is also pretty much in the same category as any other drug addict. There's only a tiny bit less disgustingness about it because it's not illegal (though it should be) and I don't do drugs, haven't done drugs, and never will because I'm not that weak minded or defective.
But I disagree, you are weak minded and you are defective. It is just you areclosed minded and you cannot see it, ignorance is bliss.
No, the argument, "Go use drugs to understand how smart it is," is as stupid as saying, "Go kill someone because it's not that bad and you have to experience it to know better." That's something someone who is too selfish and addicted to their habit will say to justify that illegal thing they treasure above everything else and not something any other rational person would say. It's pretty easy to see something is stupid by looking at it from afar and seeing the wrecked leftovers of people that it leaves in its wake without becoming one of those societal rejects yourself.
Really? I never said you should go out and do it, I said you have to experience it to really know since it is impossible to describe.
And that hyperbole, it is such a retarded argument. Murder = drug use? Seriously?
The problem is that you only see the the bad, but.. you do know that a lot of very important people, people smarter than you, way more acomplished than you, who have actually molded the course of human history, have tried drugs whatever they may be. And many you would not know.
Sorry, if you take an illegal drug even once, you're willfully throwing aside all that's good and right in the world in order to have some temporary, chemically induced pleasure at the cost of everyone and everything else. You're an addict and don't deserve to be a member of any orderly, civilized society that depends on the efforts of a lot of people in order to accomplish great stuff together. People like that should be shunned and prevented from perpetuating their broken lineage through their children.
If even trying drugs would get you thrown out of society, many of the greatests minds of human history would have been cast out.
