Cannabischarlie said: No, Marijuana has never caused cancer, therefore it doesnt, simple as that. Tobacco has been proven time and time again to be the direct cause of lung cancer in many cases. Marijuana has not. Also they have proven that it is the carcinogenic chemicals and how its grown that makes tobacco cancer-causing, and Marijuana fails to cause the same mechanism of action. Read up before you post, you are making broad statements. Not only has Marijuana not proved to cause cancer, it has proven that it DOESN'T
provide sources or shut up
your statements have been disputed previously, and you've yet to meet the burden your argument carries.
show the proof for the premises of your argument.
I think you're wrong
This seems to come close: http://www.webmd.com/lung-cancer/news/20060523/pot-smoking-not-linked-to-lung-cancer ...And it only took me a few seconds to find it 
But such findings were already old news. From 2000: http://www.webmd.com/smoking-cessation/news/20000508/marijuana-unlikely-to-cause-cancer

Im sorry, but you're a moron. The truth is, the active compounds in Cannabis (Which are also found in Echinacea, Cacao and other plants) are not harmful to health in any way shape or form, smoking however, is. It is 100% correct that Cannabis smoke is not as harmful as cigarette smoke. the claim that it contains "More chemicals" holds no scientific strength in the real world, because everything that isn't a free element, is considered a chemical. Including water, the nutrients we need to live and pretty much anything else you can think of. What actually matters is what these chemicals are. In cigarettes and other tobacco products, many of these chemicals are synthetic additives used for flavour, preservation and other reasons. The active chemicals in Cannabis, known as Cannabinoids, are actually produced inside the body. Let me repeat myself for you un-educated morons who are still brainwashed into believing cannabis is harmful, CANNABINOIDS, the active compounds in CANNABIS that are responsible for the "HIGH" are produced naturally in your body. Not only have these Cannabinoids never been scientifically linked to any negative health effect, but the opposite has also been proven. In fact, due to the fact that our bodies produce Cannabinoids naturally, and all mammals have an Endo-Cannabinoid system, it can be argued that the body has a biological need for these Cannabinoids. Fact of the matter is, the only person here that cant face the truth is you. I could give you the names of over 30 laboratories that have proven the benefits of Cannabis and its constituents and I could also give you countless examples of FDA and other government "Health" resources openly lying. "Why not just its unhealthy for me, but I'm going to do it anyways" Because science has completely proven (To those who have a respect for science, unlike you) that it is not un-healthy. "Toxins", "Chemicals" and other similar terms have no real weight in the real world, as Toxicity revolves mostly around dosage and mostly everything is a Chemical. These are words used by media to poison your mind and dumb you down. Go get a real education before commenting next time, buddy.

Cannabis may not have 20 times more harmful toxins than tobacco, but it does apparently impair the ability to break up huge blocks of text into paragraphs.
Cannabis also negatively impacts the part of the brain that is used to check whether a thread is 5 years old before replying to it.

The fact that the only thing you can attack is my writing structure and thread choice shows you understand little of what I said. I am well aware this thread is old, I do not care, people still read it, and still get dumbed down by some of the stupid things that are posted, and my hope is to fix just a bit of that.

I wasn't really trying to attack you. I agree with the rest of what you said.
