People with psychosis, whose symptoms include hallucinations, paranoia, hearing voices and a persecution complex, are more likely than not to have a marijuana habit.

So to sum it up Take these kinds of studies with a grain of salt until a Non-Biased Comprehensive Study is done, then the real debate begins
GuardianRobin Murray, professor of psychiatry at the Institute of Psychiatry, London, said there were still many unanswered questions, such as: "If half the world smokes cannabis, why aren't they all psychotic?"

Correlation is not causation and I think that the methodolgy in this study hardly makes the case for causality. There is a correlation between shoe size and educational attainment, but there is no causal relationship.
It's funny though, when the Guardian reports on the sanity of the American electorate or the Iraq war, they are always dead on, according to many here.

Correlation could also mean causation.
Maybe the more educated you are, you realize that wearing tight shoes might make cut off your toes blood supply, so more educated people buy bigger size shoes than their foot sizes.

What I really dont like, is it seem Gov. is wasting money to find something wrong with Canabis, But Tobbaco and Alchol which kill more than all major drugs combined is ok. Why are they so against it? I bet more people would go to work after a night of smoking then after a night of drinking. and lets take a poll of people who dont drink,and just smoke, I will bet there is no gateway to harder drugs, But I know when people get drunk. It always leads to more.

I'd take Cannabis over Flouride ANY DAY, one is put into your water and toothpaste, the other leads to nearly one million arrests in the US annually. One is DEADLY poison and builds toxicity in the body, the other passes through the urine in about a month. One was used for Rat Poison in the 20's, the other was used to benefit man kind in thousands of ways. You decide.
