In a groundbreaking development, the Rastafari community in Antigua and Barbuda has achieved a significant milestone in their quest for religious freedom. The government has granted sacramental rights to cannabis, allowing Rastafarians to use it as part of their spiritual practices. This decision marks a significant shift in the country’s attitude towards cannabis, recognizing its cultural and religious significance to the Rastafari faith.
Celebration for Freedom of Worship
Rastafarians in Antigua and Barbuda are celebrating this newfound recognition and freedom to worship. For years, the Rastafari community has advocated for the sacramental use of cannabis, which they consider a holy herb. With the official recognition of cannabis as a sacrament, Rastafarians can now partake in their religious rituals without fear of legal repercussions. This landmark decision serves as a triumph for religious diversity and underscores the growing acceptance of cannabis for both spiritual and medicinal purposes.
