No, it is actually a proposed scientific theory in anthropology.

“That looks like Jerry Garcia...................”

In the 60s and 70s there were a whole lot of folks running around who looked like Jesus... And Jerry Garcia... lol

Years ago I discovered the Christian faith and Mushroom connection. It is pretty deep. There is a whole lot of visual symbolism that is too hard to just shake off.

Testosterone levels were about 4 times what they are now also.

“Testosterone levels were about 4 times what they are now also.”

Never thought about that possibility... What would the factor be?

Studies on NBOMe family of compounds demonstrated that the substance exhibit neurotoxic and cardiotoxic activity.

Street names of the drug include: Wizard, and Smiles.

That is actually a color enhanced image from a painting in a medieval Church.

Diet and sedentary lifestyle I suppose. We’re used to three meals a day - they sometimes didn’t eat for a few days. Just guesses on my part. They measured the testosterone from earlier eras by skull thickness. Anthropology enlightens a few.

“We’re used to three meals a day - they sometimes didn’t eat for a few days. Just guesses on my part.”

That makes sense, Hunter Gatherers would have to gorge when they could because it might be days before they find more sustenance to gorge on again.

That is what makes the “Early man was Vegan” theory null and void. There was no way they could last through the winter on flora that DID NOT grow until next spring...

“They measured the testosterone from earlier eras by skull thickness. Anthropology enlightens a few.”

I did not know that, thank you!

You’re insane.

Is that your professional diagnosis doctor? It seems hasty for so little time with a patient. I think people nowadays are too judgmental. I can tell just by looking at them.

I’m a lot more familiar with this than you.

Scientifically and socially.

It’s the old Tim Leary, Richard Alpert crap from late 50’s/early sixties that lead to the destruction of our country.

Why do you think people have gone so insane, believing men are woman, thinking weird sexual relations are the same as man-woman-children families, believe any sort of religious hooey other than the religion that built western civilization, and for that matter belief that western civilization is evil in the world.

This is cutting edge technology. We're breaking down old barriers for a new horizon.

And sometimes to make an omelet you have to break a few eggs (trial and error).

Well it is a correct diagnosis, I suppose I am insane for trying so hard to soften the mental firewalls here.

Obviously not... It was obvious I was talking about early man long before any known formal religions... Man has been consuming Psychedelics since the very beginning.

So you think survival instincts told them that after about four days without eating they had better kick it in gear and propagate before they starve to death? lol

Jeesh you’re an idiot, yet not surprised if you’re championing crazy-making drugs.

Michael Harner crap.

Neopagan crap, revisionist history crap.

Same crap. Western civilization is bad. The ancient wisdom of these ancient pagans and their doped out shamans is superior.

You’re a liberal.

The ‘no cheese’ part looks disturbing.

Oh, it was being used in the old world long before the Aztecs...

Don't be so sure. I hear tell that cocaine residues have been found in Egyptian mummies.
