Observers Agree: Marijuana Does Not Make You Smart

No, the news that smoking marijuana is less likely to cause cancer than smoking tobacco is not a powerful endorsement of pot. Smoking lots of things is less likely to cause cancer than smoking tobacco. And no, the report from scientists at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon (yes, it’s a real university) that cannabinoids, the active ingredient in pot, can encourage the growth of nerve cells in the brain does not mean that smoking dope makes you smart. And despite the chorus of complaints from some of Geezer’s colleagues ("Where were all those scientists back when we needed them, when an ounce of pot cost $12 and three people could smoke a joint without their brains leaking out of their ears?") there is an abundance of evidence that smoking pot often makes you the opposite of smart. And there is some very entertaining evidence that it makes you horny, which has been known to lead to behavior that is the opposite of smart behavior, although often worth the risk. Read more about the less than dire consequences of smoking pot. Read more about the effects of cannabinoids in mouse brains and hope that it translates to bigger and better brains in humans. Geezer’s opinion: unlikely.
