It is naturally occurring though; it's just cultivated artificially.

"cultivated artificially" - you just said it. If it's artificial it's not natural.

I choose to obey God. You need to make your own decision but be aware that hell is a real place. You don't want to go there, trust me.

Well it's like saying a house plant grown from a cutting isn't naturally occurring. It is naturally occurring, it just wouldn't naturally occur that a clipping is put in its own pot and cultivated. So, sorry, but I didn't just say that.
