The word 'herb' appears frequently in the King James Version of the Bible, and has been interpreted by some as a justification for the use of the so-called 'holy herb' (marijuana) for meditative and curative purposes. HOWEVER, there is NOT a script 4:20 that refers to "herb".
One myth claims that police use the number 420 to signal a marijuana possession arrest. Drug users in the 1960s co-opted the term as a snub at the law enforcement community. Another competing and less popular story links the 4/20 holiday with Adolph Hitler's birthday. The Internet is rampant with Web sites created by loyal pot-smokers claiming they personally invented the term - and each webmaster claims his own unique origin.
