Do you think such a drug exists that is no worse worse to your health, psyci, or reasoning power than drinking to the point of a small buzz and smoking irregularly and can have at least the same beneficial effects?

[quote name='dairygirl4u2c' date='Feb 26 2006, 09:17 PM']The intent is there. To say it's subjective is like saying "thou shalt not kill" is subjective. It is, in that self defense is not okay, but to in anyway infer that wanton killing is okay is a cop out.

[/quote]The reason that I said that its morality is subjective is because it is not a moral absolute like murder and such.

And is it just me, or did this post make little sense? Please clarify.

[quote]No they are not. Re-read the part where it says that it may be permissible to use them in [b]therapeutic practices. This clearly shows that the case is subjective[/b]. Subjectively wrong in most, but subjectively permissible in certain cases where the circumstances would allow. This does not say that all use of drugs are objectively wrong. [/quote]

I agree that they are not saying all drugs are bad. I should have been more clear. it's okay for theaputic.

Now, if you are saying that what constitutes theraputic is subjective it seems like you're saying almost to the point of saying it's okay to use them recreationally under the name of theraputic, that's what I posted against.

No ,I was not arguing that what constitues a "therapeutic" is subjective, but that the use of drugs is because therapeutic reaons are morally justified.
