And no one is suggesting it's the same as bath salts either. But harmless? Over time, no.

Yes they are suggesting that. Anyone who suggest either side of that spectrum are just very ignorant. Still dumb as hell to be illegal and less harmful to the body than many legal drugs.

I'm not arguing it's legal status, I'm simply reporting what physicians who specialize in disorders of the brain tell me. If you disagree with them, then so be it. I'm sure your years of medical training and research is equal to theirs.

What are you arguing then? If you are arguing that marijuana is more harmful to the body than alcohol, then you and those 2 "physicians" are just plain dumb. I never argued or said marijuana is harmless, but it's not the body eating drug like some are wanting it to be.

I never brought up alcohol in this thread. Not sure where you got that. My point was that the neurologists that I know and interact with on a daily basis have told me that chronic long term use of marijuana is not harmless. That's all.

If these particular ones say that it's more harmful than alcohol, then yeah they dumb. I suppose if they told you santa was real you would believe that as well.

It's just as ridiculous. What's your point? Neurologist says something, so that should be taken as gospel?

I'm all for challenging "experts" but it's seems that challenging neurologist about the effects of long term effects from "weed" is a little bit of a stretch...

You can beleive that alcohol is more harmful to the body than marijuana.

Fade's guy didn't even say that, he said it was not harmless and I agree with that.

In a court of law, a neurologist would be called an expert witness when discussing the effects marijuana has on the brain. So yes, on this topic it should be taken as gospel.

And to piggy back off of my previous statement, what could get me fired at my job in Tennessee would not get me fired in Colorado and that enough is to completely dismiss this whole topic in my opinion.

It's company policy to choose if you drug test or not. Pot can get you fired in Colorado.

Marijuana is an illegal drug, a gateway drug, and extremely harmful.

I'm Uber conservative and don't smoke pot, but this is complete BS. I have friends who have smoked pot since college and never graduated to harder substances. Culture is a gateway. Gang bangers smoke pot and so do hippies and good ole boys. Big difference in how pot is perceived in each of those cultures.

What evidence would said neurologist cite as an expert witness on the effects of marijuana use on cognition and IQ?

Would he site one of the twin studies that "evidence from these two samples suggests that observed declines in measured IQ may not be a direct result of marijuana exposure but rather attributable to familial factors that underlie both marijuana initiation and low intellectual attainment"?

Or maybe he'd cite "Are IQ and educational outcomes in teenagers related to their cannabis use? A prospective cohort study", where researchers wrote that "these findings suggest that adolescent cannabis use is not associated with IQ or educational performance once adjustment is made for potential confounds, in particular adolescent cigarette use. Modest cannabis use in teenagers may have less cognitive impact than epidemiological surveys of older cohorts have previously suggested"?

Who am I kidding, this is America, the neurologist would play a VHS copy of Reefer Madness for the judge and jury, and we can all start buying synthetic marijuana from large pharmaceutical companies instead, since of course naturally growing marijuana is terrible for you, and obviously has no medicinal benefits what-so-ever.
