greetings everyone!
i read an article in december's high times about thc-ministry. i looked it up, and i found it compelling. i don't believe in anything supernatural, but there is no denying that we live in a realm of information beyond the physical. our memories transcend the atoms that hold them. it seems appropriate to call this the spiritual realm.
there is also no denying that consuming cannabis is a spiritual experience. i won't go into many details of describing that experience since many have done so already. having been raised in church as a kid, having had religious experiences, i can say with confidence that the experiences overlap.
so all of the sudden i find myself matching the description of a religious person whose sacrament is cannabis. and probably all of you can as well.
so from there, it seems perfectly reasonable to associate with a religion such as THC ministry, in all sincerity. and there is probably no easier option than to join that denomination.
my question is, from there, what are the chances of being successful in using this as a defense for growing for personal consumption? (no reselling!)
i'm skeptical by nature, and i wonder if thc ministry is not just a clever way for the founder to make some dough. certainly there are testimonials, hopefully truthful, although that remains to be verified from my perspective, and it seems that most of those testimonials are from people in hawaii, where cannabis is much better accepted even tolerated than most other places.
i searched the forums and found a couple of threads on the topic:
this one is almost a year old. and i believe the guy got busted because he was selling.

this one is from earlier this year and has limited information.

so i turn to our collective wisdom at ICMAG. what do you guys think? anyone else has thoughts on the topic? any other testimonials?
keep in mind, the scenario is growing a small number of plants (let's say under 12) for personal consumption as a religious sacrament (which is just a way to say that it helps you connect with your spiritual side).
thanks!
