As a pain reliever marijuana is unsurpassed.
Better than dying of opiate overdose. imho

I did. Just because theres evidence to suggest it can slow the progress of cancer or even prevent the onset doesn't mean it can cure it. Until further research is done to confirm that it can actually destroy cancer altogether we should not say it is a "cure for cancer". At the most we could state its possible THC may be used to create a preventative measure against it. Stating anything more is allowing optimism to cloud your judgement. Considering how hospitals could save a fortune if this were ever established I doubt there isn't extensive research being done toward it and if its bares any fruits I sincerely doubt anyone would hesitate to report this if it were the case.

You do know that Marijuana was deemed an illegal substance all because some bumfuck cousin of the US of A President was a cotton farmer...

At no point in any post above did I say it was a cure for cancer. "Cancer" is made up of a myriad of diseases & there most likely won't be a magic bullet for "cancer" until we get really, really good at making nanoscale devices.

I personally am looking at the pain management capacity of the herb.
