I seem to be noticing this all to often.
It seems like people choose to use science when it seems to fit their god damned agenda and it pisses me off. When it comes to atheism you all turn into masters of in the field of physics, chemistry, and biology...which isn't a [i]bad[/i] thing!
But once somebody is arguing about the negative effects of marijuana on the human body people for the drug say shit like "oh that study is biased!", "that study was bad", "yeah those guys had an agenda". You guys sound as ignorant as a scientifically illiterate Christian saying the earth is 6000 years old and dinosaur fossils are some lie conjured by the Devil.
We don't need another damn drug making the general population even more stupid. Just think about how dumb the average person is, and realize that half of us are dumber than THAT. How many weedheads and drug addicts do you think EVER become a productive person in society? Are there any top tier scientist or engineer that use drugs? I don't think so. I like it when we use freedom for freedom of upward mobility, not freedom for stupidity and degenerative behavior.
tl;dr: potheads denouncing science when it doesn't suit them piss me off.

While in terms of creationist arguments and whatnot, science generally blows them out of the water (pl0x don't kill me) because there are no valid scientific papers supporting their views... For marijuana, right now there seems to be studies saying that it is harmful, and studies showing that it is not. Only time and better research techniques will determine which is right.
