Ever heard the joke: When is a door not a door? A: When it is ajar.
If Cannabis is my sacrament, is it ever not my sacrament?
What we have is a perception game - perspective. It comes down to attitude and approach. If in mind Cannabis is always sacrament, it will always remain sacrament.
Cannabis is many things. It heals the sick, lifts spirits, provides nutrition - all is true. However, if in every instance my intention is first to respect my sacrament - the outcome is always that I have respected my sacrament.
Recreation gets a negative connotation as if unnecessary. Truthfully recreation is restoring health and spirits. I say Cannabis rivals water, oxygen, and exercise in importance of restoring health and spirits. If I am first respecting my sacrament, then recreational misuse is impossible.
[Remember this distinction.]
With this in mind, the discussion of "use in moderation" is useless. By respecting sacrament which results in preventing misuse, talk of moderation in purpose is to please others.
A Cantheist needs not to please others in this manner.
