Stirring Torah with Rabbi Paul Moses Strasko: Parashat Ki Tisa 5783.

Any time that we dare to discuss something with distinct ideological positions, the noise from our minds already made up will always drown out nuanced conversation. That being said, this exploration has much more to do with the meta discussion of our anger and anxiety at being placed into a position of discomfort than anything else. But still, there MAY be cannabis in the Torah, and that "MAY" deserves a bit of exploration.
