I mean really it was their God who put it here in the first place. And after all that is who is really pushing against marijuana de-criminalization. Damn Republicrats!
Religion actually had less to do with it than lobbiests for companies who wanted to syntheticly produce all of the products that were previously derived from the word's most versatile plant.

If you are interested in the subject, I highly recommend "The Emporer Wears no Clothes" by Jack Herer. The author has posted it to his website:

The author has $100,000 up on his front page for anyone who wishes to prove him wrong http://www.jackherer.com
