I stole all you bacons.

I don't think you did.

A man stealing another man's bacon is frowned upon.

Play nice children.

Oddball, all you offer is opinion. You should realise this. Your experience is not infallible. And neither is your opinion. So you don't have to be so offended if someone contradicts it. Blanket statements about there not being any credible evidence regarding this subject is just silly.

Matt, studies have been wrong. But being science you realise this.

Growler, are you cyber stalking again?

This is true, and I have no problem being convinced by other well-conducted studies.

This area of research is relatively young, and the variables being investigated are so hazy, it is actually not that hard to come up with reasoned arguments (and perhaps even a few papers) that go against what I'm saying.

@oddball Sorry for assuming that I know more about it than you, it's just that in my opinion you come across as reasonably uninformed (from a scientific perspective). Surely you can see why my argument is a whole lot stronger than yours?

According to this exercise releases natural cannabinoids. Not that it would actually condone the use of artificial cannabinoid stimulants any more than heroine is condoned by the bodies natural ability to release opiates during periods of extreme trauma.

This is a bit shocking, although I'd have to hear the other side of the story as well. Seems like slavery.

Add one more data point to the decades-old debate over marijuana legalization: A new study concludes that casual pot smoking - up to one joint per day - does not affect the functioning of your lungs.

The study, published in the Jan. 11 edition of Journal of the American Medical Association, also offered up a nugget that likely will surprise many: Evidence points to slight increases in lung airflow rates and increases in lung volume from occasional marijuana use.

Is that including the smoke which goes along with the joint? Just curious as I would think that any amount of smoking would be bad for you.

Yes.

The results are a bit strange though. Might be an issue with sampling or operationalisation of drug use.

I would imagine this is true also, but when comparing smoking and toking it is a safe assumption that the later will involve consuming a lesser volume of smoke. I also imagine performing any accurate study on this would be difficult considering small sample sizes.

True, but as I said, any smoke is bad smoke. I am not at all saying that smoking a bit of ye ole kush is a bad thing, apart from the smoke I've heard that it only does good things for you, as long as you aren't a psycho to begin with. I have heard that you can ingest marijuana through a vaporizer, which is obviously a lot healthier anyway, and gets you a lot higher. If I ever did want to smoke marijuana then that is the way I would go, I've even heard that there are 'vapes' as small as your hand, which you can charge up and carry around with you.
