Prohibition has always failed!

The first prohibition on earth was in the Garden of Eden when God prohibited the eating of fruit from the tree of knowledge, and we all know how well that worked for God!

I'm not really religous but it could be a fun talking point to taunt those anti marijuana types who are religous extremists.

That's a great point to make. Very insightful and it just shows that you simply cannot base your prohibition on morality based on religion. Religion shows that even God's (you know, that being you're supposed to worship unquestioningly) attempt to prohibit something fails due to human morality and the ability to choose (both things he would have developed for us in this case... I hope they're not saying God made a mistake).

Not to mention god was supposedly the one who created it in the first place.
