I'm sorry; I thought you did.

> There was a point in my life when I decided that getting high and getting drunk (merely another way of getting high) were immoral. I don't think about it at all, really, anymore. I might think on it again, and trot out an argument. It might be too long, and I think it unlikely that most people would agree in any case.

You're probably not going to convince me, but I'm interested in hearing why all the same. I can think of all sorts of reasons why getting high is detrimental to your health and the general well-being of society, but I'm at a loss to figure out why anyone would consider it immoral. Consider it a request from me in the simple of interest of sociological curiosity. ;-)
