Free Roger!
“The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free." Luke 4:18
Roger Christie has been held without bail at the Honolulu Federal Detention Center since July 8, 2010. His trial on federal drug trafficking charges has been set for October 3, 2011. While Rev Christie is able to make phone calls and received emails under restricted conditions, he must pay dearly for the privilege. The Federal Detention Center charges him about $600 per month for phone calls, emails, and access to the prison commissary.

The government as we know in the united States is outdated. It’s hard to believe that our peers allow America to be behind all countries in our Draconian drug law. The only crimes that I have been convicted of are drug infractions. We need to rally to change things the one thing about America is we don’t stick together ….now is the time so let’s rally for all of our concern you go Roger we love you.

Who framed Rodger Christ(I) Rodger is a pillar of the cannabis community cofounder of the T.he H.oly C.hrist ministries and like Jesus told Moses I am that I am regarding to the burnin bush, And I believe the government used their power of the criminal justic system as a way to put fear into are citizens and forceses the sick and the religious users of this healing plant to use a unnatural substance I honestly believe rodger is a healer not a killer. Whats takin place now is very similar to what jesus went threw when will we as a people realize and acnoledge a profits before thier dead and gone.(universal creater of all things free Rodger Christi by all means)

I was in full support of Roger 10 years ago when he starter the Hawaii THC Ministries. For ten years Roger presented Marijauna as a Sacrament through the Hawaii THC Church. Roger put together a church without walls.We call our herb our sacrament we existed and grew for the last ten years. Some of us naturally became ministers of word and sacrament like the roadmap with the peyote the THC ministiries exist we are a tenures group of American Citizens THC RELIGIOUS GROUPS. Unlike any other Reliigeon. Hawaii Style
Kick back bro …… Feel God , See God, Share God and all his wonders. Roger kept it simple
You don’t see a lot of dogma in the structure of the THC MINISTRIES it is natural a real approach to a real Church……so no INDICTMENT can disband us now we press hard because if you believe it’s true ….and I believe for over 10 years that the Hawaii THC Ministries exist and has rights and privileges .

I believe…
Marijuana use should be legal as well as hemp. Many properties many uses. Spiritual, physical and the economics outlook is promising growth. Entrepreneural opprotunities for many with growing, green house maintenance, distribution, sales in-store, online and mail order outlets.
There are many hoops to jump through with legalities. Hopefully the state gods of prohibition will see the light of day soon.
Nobody forces people to imbibe.
