∙ 14y agoNot all drugs were created by God. Marijuana is a plant that was created by a God. Heroine is a drug that is synthesized by man, and was not created directly by God. All things serve a purpose, marijuana's root (hemp) can be used to make a very strong fabric that will last quite a long time. Maybe He put it on earth for that purpose. We shouldn't assume just because it can be smoked doesn't mean that is how God intended it. For example, bugs can eat rhubarb leaves but they are poisonous to humans. Bugs don't eat the steam, but humans do. God must have made to leaves for bugs (and to help the plant function) and the stem for men (and to help the plant function as well). Nobody can ever by 100% sure, all answers will just be speculation. You can only get the real answer when you go to Heaven and you get to ask Him yourself!

That depends on how you look at it. Few currently used drugs come directly from the rainforest, although many drugs were developed on the basis of 'lead compounds' that were identified from tropical plants.
