The morality of marijuana

As the first Christmas with legal cannabis rolls around, the company that brought us the Cannabis Advent Calendar is back.

CannaCalendar says last year's offering was such a hit they're back with more models this holiday season.

The website claims "after the success of our 2017 Christmas Cannabis Advent Calendar, we’re back, and better than ever with the new 420 Bud Party Variety Pack."  

The Vancouver company is selling cannabis for Christmas. Prices vary, but if you have a weed lover in your life, the calendar can bring them 25 days of different cannabis strains.

The company is not licensed in B.C.

At the other end of the spectrum, B.C.'s Catholic Bishops say they're OK with medical marijuana use, but they do not support the use of recreational pot.
 
In a letter posted online in late November, the six bishops from B.C. and one from Whitehorse state: “The mere fact that an activity is made legal by the government does not automatically mean that it is morally acceptable.”

“When there is no genuine medical need for using a drug and it is used merely to cause inebriation, it is sinful behaviour,” the bishops state.

The letter indicates that, much like alcohol, people under the influence might choose to do things they wouldn’t while sober.
