What if everything you were ever told by the government and doctors about marijuana was a lie? What if, instead of Marijuana causing cancer or brain damage, it actually cured it and generated new cells? What if our government had known this since the 1970s, but intentionally suppressed it and kept cannabis outlawed anyway?

Today I play two interviews. One with the father of the hemp movement, Jack Herer, who is the author of the famed best selling book The Emperor Wears No Clothes: Hemp and the Conspiracy Against Marijuana. www.jackherer.com Jack has, for over 30 years, been teaching the world about industrial hemp and medical marijuana and offers $100,000 to prove him wrong. He’s been fully or partially responsible for the return of industrial hemp to over 50 nations. If you know the word hemp, you likely learned it either directly or indirectly from Jack. Jack has also studied the history of mushrooms in Judeo-Christianity for more than 25 years, so we’ll also be discussing his work on mushrooms in Christianity, and his upcoming book The Most High. Jack suffered a stroke in 2000 and was expected to never walk or talk again. Through the use of copious amounts of Cannabis, as well as the use of both Amanita and psilocybe mushrooms, he not only speaks today, but walks and is also able to drive.

I also interview Canada’s Rick Simpson who runs Phoenix Tears and was involved in the creation of an amazing documentary film called Run From the Cure. Rick has made an amazing discovery based on old (and new) research that was mostly suppressed back in the 1970s. But in the back of Rick’s mind he remembered a radio host discussing the fact that THC shrinks tumor cells from a show 30 years prior. Recalling this information, Rick set out to test Cannabis bud essential oil extract (that he calls Hemp Oil) on his own skin cancer. And to his amazement, less than a week later his skin tumors disappeared. Since then Rick has been teaching people how they can treat and cure their own cancer. But why is this information not headline news? And why is the Canadian government trying to prosecute him – for curing people?

As we’ll find out, millions of jobs and billions of dollars are made on from a completely bogus cancer treatment industry - where more people are killed than cured.

Do you have cancer? Present the following information to your doctor and then ask why he’s not treating you with Cannabis.

THC to cure skin cancer?
Well, not just skin cancer. It has been documented, even videotaped (www.sethgroup.org) that THC from the cannabis plant attacks cancerous and mutated cells while leaving healthy cells unharmed
http://www.whfhhc.com/Skin-Cancer/145529.htm

One fascinating aspect of Dr. Manuel Guzman’s work is that, as the tumors being treated are in brain (nerve) tissue, the neuroprotective properties of THC become extremely important. Whereas most cancer treatments cause damage to surrounding tissue (especially crucial in the brain), THC treatments actually protect adjacent non-cancerous nerve tissue.
