Can you be more specific?

sure, Christians who do drugs casually...ie) Weed, shrooms...etc....just say......every couple of months....what do people think about that?

The word hypocrite comes to mind.

Not all Christians are devout. But it works for them...why do you ask?

Christians are humans too. humans do things like that. end of story.

we are not God we need to stop preaching like we are. I am Catholic & i am guilty of smokin the hippy lettuce, drinkin the booze & have premarital sex. so what. im not gettin to heaven or hell any faster. lol

I believe that is against common Christian principles but if that's how they want to live their life then so be it.

I think the issue here is you have some so called Christians who look down upon others for doing bad things, have the nerve to talk about morals etc. when in private they do things that are unlike Christian like such as drugs, or hating a group of people b/c of their skin color (a lot of those KKK members and those today w/that same mentality hate black, jews etc. but claim to be devout Christians). That's why the word hypocrite comes to mind.

And for the record it's not just Christianity as I find that in a lot of the major realigions there's seems to be a lot of people who are hypocrites and don't seem to be following the teachings/principals of that religion. I'm not knocking religion in any sense but some of those who "follow" these religions (quotations are follow b/c IMO they aren't acting with the love and care God and Jesus gave to all men/women).

I think that it does go against christian morals and beliefs as the bible teaches that life is sacred and so, of course, it should be respected by not doing things such as drugs.

Im not one to judge and i think that people should be free to make whatever choices they want in life, this includes choosing to do drugs or not.
