The effects actually vary from person to person and they both have serious side effects, so neither can really be coined as more dangerous since both can easily kill someone or destroy their lives. The main difference is that they both mainly target different organs, with alcohol destroying the liver and stomach, marijuana destroying the lungs and pretty much everything else, and both destroying the brain slowly.

It depends on several factors, e.g. quantities consumed, body characteristic, and lifestile. Both tends to be highly addictive. Generally speaking, it damages more the substance that becomes more addictive.

I wouldn't say one is worse than the other in terms of psychological affects,but in terms of bodily harm weed is much less dangerous then alcohol.

The use of marijuana in a smoked form affects the lungs, to what extent is unknown.While the consumption of cannabis in a vaporized or eatable form seems to have no negative health affects. There are also tests being done by some UK scientists to see the long term affects of cannabis, while lung damage is one, they believe marijuana may also cause schizophrenia in some persons.

The consumption of liquor in small amounts may actually be positive to your health but the affects of alcohol in large amounts are much more apparent and devastating, while not only affecting the liver, alcohol also damages the brain in such a manner that learning may become very very difficult. As well as the possibility of overdose, which is a physical impossibility with cannabis.

Your talking the lesser of 2 evils, While alcohol affects both the brain and liver, the affects of cannabis are to the lungs, but only when smoked.

Bottom line is that you shouldn't do either, but marijuana does less long term bodily damage than alcohol.

marijuana is far less dangerous because it does not cause brown lung syndrome, no marijuana only smokers have ever contracted cancer. The overdose of weed results in a nap or a headache followed by a feast where as the overdose of alcahol ends up in throwing up, pumping of the stomach by professionals or death. dont drink and drive just smoke and be the DD. in the words of snoop "smoke weed every day."

Yes, alchol does more physical damage to your body. It affects your liver and many other organs as well.
