Psychedelics are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a third story window. Psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally laid down models of behavior and information processing.

There is nothing addictive in alcohol. People can control it, if they wish. Most just don't want to and like to blame a "disease" (which is as ludicrous) because saps fall for it. To me, it's groups like AA that feed off of idiots who would rather play dumb and helpless than take control of their lives. It's easier to be ignorant and claim you're a victim than admit you have a problem that you aren't strong enough to control. This is just like the guy I cited in the "only in religion" thread who is using religion as a cop-out for his lack of taking responsibility in his own life and to just stop smoking weed on his own.

Dude just shut up.
You're being so stupid. Honestly you're pissing me off because I used to respect a lot of things you'd say but now you're spewing garbage. |

Instead of just telling me to shut up and negrepping me for the same reasons, why don't you actually tell me why you disagree with me. If I'm wrong, I'll learn. Otherwise, you're just coming off as an elitist who is too good to say anything more than "just shut up."

Alcoholics use alcohol to cope with stress. They become psychologically dependent on alcohol. Their psychological dependence can manifest itself physically during withdrawal.
It can be prevented or corrected by a measure of control. There are those that cannot do it themselves and need help. If you need help, get it. Nothing wrong with that. |

There is nothing in alcohol, alcohol is alcohol. Alcohol is physically addictive, so if alcohol isn't addictive, by your incredibly misguided standards, nothing is. So even if you discount all the mental aspects, it undeniably forms a tolerance and physical addiction and goes into physical withdrawal if the person stops drinking. So if you really are ready to throw out all the non physical aspects, that means there is no such thing as a coke addict, or a meth addict, which is a hard argument to make. Even though, as I said, alcohol withdrawal can fucking kill you. So really, do you think that anything is addictive, or that anything is a drug? Are these just made up words? | |

Drug: something and often an illegal substance that causes addiction, habituation, or a marked change in consciousness
Drug - Definition and More from the Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary Clearly, alcohol causes a marked change in consciousness, thus making it a drug according to the Merriam Webster dictionary. But hell, alcohol is a blast when it's used in moderation, and better yet it's a legal drug for those over the age of 21. So let's all stop fighting and get wasted! |
