Best Answer

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the 'Mormon' Church) can smoke marijuana, but they shouldn't because is against their religion. Mormons are supposed to honor, obey, and sustain the law, and marijuana is illegal. An adult Mormon who smokes marijuana will face Church discipline.

Medical Marijuana is accepted by the church, and the question of marijuana use when it is legal is a debated grey area currently. D+C 59, especially verse 17, states that all herbs are for our benefit. It also states that those who do not confess the hand of God in all things displease him. The word of wisdom, found in D+C 89, has similar statements about herbs.

No. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" Church) follow a heath code called the "Word of Wisdom" which they believe was given to the Church from God. As they believe their bodies are sacred gifts from God, they follow this health code to protect their bodies.

The "Word of Wisdom" prohibits tobacco, smoking and illicit drugs of all kinds. It also prohibits the use of alcohol unless it is being used as a disinfectant or cleaner. "Hot drinks" such as coffee and tea are also prohibited.

Eating whole grains, vegetables, and fruit are highly encouraged by the Word of Wisdom, and meat is to be used sparingly.

You can read the Word of Wisdom or learn more about it at the "Related Links" below.
