Alchohol vs marijuana

Some of you peoples above me said that smoking Marijuana causes harm to your lungs which is totally incorrect. It's not that marijuana itself causes harm to lungs, its the fact that some people consume it by smoking it. Smoke itself causes harm to your lungs no matter what you're smoking and that's why there's other alternatives to smoking it like cooking with it and using a vaporizer. (:

I won't preach that marijuana is the saving grace for all diseases and try to justify smoking it but from personal experience it is, by far, less dangerous. @rachel- you can't overdose on marijuana

Firstly, I'd like to say that neither of these are actually bad. Sure, in large doses, or if they are consumed carelessly, then problems will arise. But the same can be said of literally anything (binge drinking water puts you at risk of "flooding" your body and can potentially kill–look it up). That being said, i think alcohol is the riskier of the two drugs. I've never seen a reported case of marijuana overdose, while alcohol related problems are as common a trend as anything in the newspapers. Again, I don't have a problem with either, but alcohol is far easier to abuse and a LOT more dangerous when you do. The only effect of smoking too much weed, as far as I know, is that you spend more money on munchies and food delivery ;)

Marijuana. There's NO overdose, no addiction(depending on the people, I suppose), NO damage whatsoever. I also heard that new research shows it doesn't even kill brain cells? I could be wrong though. I don't mind alcohol until I see that ONE person that drinks to get drunk, you know? Don't drink to get drunk, pace yourself, don't do it 25/8 and you should be better off.

It's hard to answer because they're two different drugs. Marijuana causes damage to the lungs, and the immune system making you more prone to diseases. They're chemicals in marijuana, some of them cancer-causing, remain in the body long after the drug is taken. Alcohol can be linked to both chronic and acute alcohol-related harms. Chronic alcohol-related harms include cancer, liver cirrhosis and other diseases and illnesses. Acute alcohol-related harms include alcohol poisoning, physical and (or) verbal fights and accidents. But in the end both are which can be equally harmful.

Gimme a reason why?

Im not sure why you want to know,but both are bad any way.
Both cause problems with the brain,both are addictive,both can destroy not just the user but their families as well.

Both do tons of damage and both you can die from overdosing or drinking too much of, so both would be my answer.

Ahh thank ya all for all your views :), i'd say marijuana>alchohol, Obviously marijuana has its problems of over-use,there goes the saying ,"too much of anything aint good for ya", thats always been the case, but i have seen you enjoy marijuana when you use it rather than abuse :), alchohol is almost like poison, everyday if you do, u lose in touch with yourself ,but pot can be used everyday , no problems.

I believe that alcohol is just gateway for people that are screw ups and find more reason screw up because the drink made them do but besides that people get into cars drunk people over drink and kill themselves people also STUPIDITY that is ..... but GANJA i wouldn't lie to no one in this world its a drug in lots of people eyes but it's just an herb that used to be legal in the united states but they couldn't tax it so therefore they had to make it illegal and i think that when they did that i drew people to it and from either to be cool or some just don't wanna do illegal tings and everyone should smoke weed it would be a better world no one one would be urged to kill and the Ganja its a spiritual herb sooooooo hell yea it should be legal but i go to JAmaica a lot who cares im Jamaican i can go back anytime i want and smoke all the GANJA RASTAFARI , Prosper and LOVE

Also for people saying it's addictive it's not addictive people can stop smoking the GANJA if they want no addiction to thats the man made drugs that are addictive what we call the devils little helper

They are both bad, and whilst i sincerely believe alcohol is worse, I cant negate the fact that Marijuana is dangerous as well on a psychological level more than a physical. It is addictive, people become dependent on it for happiness, it causes people to become lazier over time, i think it causes more stress because people cant cope with everyday tasks as they could when they haven't consumed. It generally cause people to care less about their lives, slowly destroys ambitions because they are constantly content. However, I will say there are potential benefits if used for medicinal purposes, in moderation but depending on what the condition is.
