I was waiting for someone to pull the R Moshe card…
Obviously nobody expects the gedolim to take a different stance on the marijuana issue than R Moshe’s . It had to be especially addressed for yeshiva students as I stated that most of the time pot is not at all conducive to torah study.
Just be a bit more tolerant of those who choose to indulge responsibly. Much to our misfortune, the issue of “hard” drugs is as relevant and strong as ever, especially among the young adults. From this perspective, pot users stand in contrast to “drug addicts”- so there IS a difference.
And queue the “gateway” argument…. I set it all up for ya 🙂
