Okay, so then using your logic one could make the claim: It is not a FACT cigarrettes cause cancer. There is just a higher probability of lung cancer occuring in smokers. Stated as such, I guess I have to agree with you.
And I don't automatically believe that if a study says something is true, then it is so. Rather, I am trained as a scientist and I would evaluate all the available data.
Unfortunately, even if I post the studies which come up with a pubmed search supporting my claim, you won't be able to see the data unless you are at a major university or otherwise have institutinal access (professional papers are copyrighted).

Then lets see what you have. Hopefully its more than "weed will make you fat and paranoid" and since your a trained scientist / full time student maybe you can get a hold of that data and relay it to us , unless thats against some higher learning rule or the data / study that you claim exists doesn't. Today I think I'm going to be an astrophysicist tomorrow I may choose to dabble in the international espionage and I think Ill finish the week up as a pianist not because I like the piano but just because the word pianist makes me giggle

PM me an email address and I'll send the first study to you (as well as plenty of others).
