Jesus Smoked Weed

I came across this surreal video from the short film “The Holy Cow” by John Young and Cracka Smile with “Jesus Smoked Weed” playing in the background by Black Shirley from a 420 Facebook friend.

I wasn’t exactly sure of what  John and Cracka Smile were trying to convey, but the video kept me engaged and curious as to where it was going next and the Black Shirley tune was genuinely fun.  A YouTube user comment had an interesting link to “Our Savior was a Pot Head,” which talks about Dr. Isaac Cohen, president of the South Israel Archaeological Society and proof he believes has been discovered to prove Jesus liked his cannabis with a pipe.

Curiosity and completeness demanded I look up the lyrics after watching the video. What do you think, did the historical figure Jesus Christ enjoy a nice pipe full of cannabis?

Jesus Smoked Weed (the Holy Cow) lyrics

I bet Jesus smoked weed
I bet Jesus smoked weed
He was a holy man from Galilee
But I heard Jesus smoked weed

No place to call home, not a thing to eat
J.C. and his apostles loved to chief
Roamed around the land and they tried to teach
Preached about the Gospel of THC

Now all the little kids are smokin’ weed
They all be swingin’ stoned and free
Why’s all the children tokin’ trees?
‘Cause they all heard Jesus smoked weed!

Don’t you wanna be like Jesus?
Don’t you wanna be like Jesus?
Don’t you wanna be like Jesus?
Don’t you wanna be like Jesus?
Don’t you wanna be like Jesus?
Don’t you wanna be like Jesus?
Don’t you wanna be like Jesus?
Don’t you wanna be like Jesus?

Smoke weed
Smoke weed
Smoke weed
Smoke weed
