Can marijuana cause physical or mental illness, and can those problems be permanent?

Is marijuana addictive?

Should marijuana be legal, and does legalization decrease crime?

Does marijuana have adverse effects on a user’s loved ones and society?

Is marijuana a miracle drug that treats many medical problems?

What about CBD and Delta-8? Are these drugs safe and effective?

Stabs at the answers to these questions flood internet search engines and online blogs, but these answers are often unscientific and saturated with personal opinions.
