Shrooms as Good as Religion |
Scientists have proven that the experience of eating psychedelic mushrooms
is identical with religious experience. However, scientists discovered
importand differences between mushrooms and christians: christians
voluntarily keep themselves in the dark and feed themselves *****.

I did shrooms a couple times way back when I was young. I can't say I
think much of this so-called 'mystical experience'. Lots of colors,
your body eliminates water so, lots of kleenex and sweating. It was a
pretty effect at first and then majorly annoying because when I was
tired of it, it wouldn't stop. I never felt a part of anything else.

There is a popular theory which states that humanity's ancestors 'woke
up' to sentience when they came upon - and ate - some funny mushrooms
or some other kind of psychotropic substance.
Wouldn't it be ironic if mushrooms 'created' the gods in the first
place?
Putting my (extremely) cynical hat on for a second, I am tempted to say
all religion is ***** anyways, so it makes sense that the idea
originally came from something that actually grew in the stuff.

Religion (superstition with a nomenclature upgrade) is *****.
