Does weed have a role religiously anywhere? People always talk about all the health benefits and how it helps fight cancer and what not. Almost like a miracle drug. If weed is so prominent in modern day society both culturally, financially and in our major health departments what function does it play out in religion?
literally every religion outside christianity

In Hindu mythology it was a gift to mankind from Shiva.

I might not be remembering the details completely accurately, but I swear I remember reading that somewhere years ago when I was studying Hinduism.
Robert Anton Wilson viewed it as a potent neurosomatic experience inducing drug.
Tldr it activates parts of the brain linked with bliss and somewhat divine experiences. But very mellow. In other words it just helps you unclog the shit stuck in your brain to take some time to relax and enjoy how cool the things surrounding you are.

Christianity has just about accepted cannabis. I personally found myself abandoning my atheism of 9 years after being a marijuana smoker for about half a year.

I only like to smoke out of slightly used pipes. The kind people have already used for crack.

Probably was a thing, but maybe not Shiva as he is the Destroyer.

Shiva is definitely the god of weed, I'm sure of that.
It's just the exact origin story I can't recall.
In Super High Me they check out a church that does this. There's even children there with their parents smoking during the sermon and shit.

I hope you know you guys sound retarded as fuck. I'm not atheist, but I used to be, and saying that becoming a pothead is what converted you not only reveals your laziness, but also the fact that you both have a low iq and are the very definition of inept. Thank you for playing.

So does smoking more weed help with feeling the bliss from the other side?
