Regardless of your attitude to drugs you cannot argue that
over thousands of years they have become increasingly diverse and prevalent in
our society. Perhaps it is the growth in the variety of drugs and their use that
has seen a very modern phenomenon emerge; the moralization and strict legal
classification of drugs and their users. This recent trend of ascribing a moral
label to drugs has meant that now there are basically two types of drugs that
exist in the world. In the black and white world of our politically correct
society drugs are classified as either medicinal or recreational in nature.
Politicians, religious groups, social welfare groups and lawmakers have drawn a
very distinct line in the sand between drugs that are good and drugs that are
bad. Drugs that are medicinal in nature (eg: modern pharmaceutical drugs) are
generally considered to be good for us and hence are classified as legal. In
general recreational drugs are considered to be bad for us and are hence deemed
illegal. The only recreational drugs that are legal are the ones that are so
entrenched in our history and culture they are too hard to eliminate from
society (eg: alcohol, coffee and tobacco).
