Cannabis Ministry Looking To Expand Into Colorado Springs

Colorado Springs Gazette:

It didn't take long for the Rev. Roger Christie, founder of the Hawaii Cannabis Ministry, to move forward with his plan to establish a cannabis church in Colorado Springs.

Christie, who lives in Hawaii, was in the city Tuesday (June 22) to give a lecture on the spiritual implications of marijuana and to check the temperature of locals about founding a cannabis church. Only seven people showed up for his lecture. But while giving two more talks in Denver last week, Christie said, a person stepped forward offering to lead the Colorado Springs cannabis church.

nope, I only support active users. Carl thinks everyone should quit like him, and if you are a medical patient like me "I have an excuse" to break the law.

It runs much deeper than that with me, as deep as any devotion he has to God's perfect plant.

I totally agree that people are free to choose any religion that they wish.

If you want to get of out possession of Marijuana in Colorado with a religion defense file the peyote paperwork with the state Before you get busted.
