I’ve often wondered about the conservative pushback against marijuana since I first tried it. In 2012, Washington and Colorado became the first states to legalize recreational marijuana. At the time I was in high school and had no strong opinion about it. Every year it seems more and more attitudes are changing in favor of legal marijuana, including mine.

Evangelicals have only recently publicly made peace with Jesus turning water to wine. Now with the rise of legalization of marijuana, they are scrambling to figure out how to defend home brewing and theology pubs while prohibiting Bud & Bible nights.
